Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Stir in sifted cocoa powder, ground hazelnuts, flour, sour cream and hazelnuts. Spread mixture into prepared pan, smoothing top.
Bake for 30 mins or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Dust with additional cocoa powder and cut into squares.
