Walnut sponge cake

Cookinero 23 Apr 2025

The nut biscuit baked according to our recipe turns out very soft and moist. Such cake layers do not need to be soaked. This means that the dessert can be served immediately with tea. To prepare the nut biscuit, you will need a detachable form without a bottom with a diameter of 24 cm and foil. It should be wrapped around the form to form the bottom. Choose walnuts correctly. Oblong oval varieties are best. Their shell is thinner, and the kernels are sweeter and larger.
