Preparation procedure

  • Preparing the batter: Whisk the egg yolks with the powdered sugar until frothy. Add the hot water, the flour mixed with the baking powder, and the chopped walnuts. Finally, gently fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites. Spread the batter onto a baking tray sized 35 × 25 cm lined with baking paper and bake at 180 °C for about 20 minutes, until the surface turns golden. Let it cool.
  • Vanilla cream: Cook a thick pudding from the pudding powder and milk and let it cool. Beat the butter with powdered sugar until fluffy and gradually beat in the cooled pudding until a smooth, creamy filling forms. Spread it over the cooled base.
  • Whipped cream layer: Whip the cream together with the vanilla sugar until stiff. Spread it over the cream layer and smooth or decorate as desired. Finally, sprinkle with grated chocolate.
  • Chilling: Place the cake in the fridge for at least 4 hours so the cream and whipped cream set and the flavors meld nicely.
