How to make Walnut Walnut Cake? First, prepare the necessary ingredients. Take the top grade flour. Butter and eggs should be at room temperature, so take them out of the fridge beforehand. Sour cream is not needed watery, with a fat content of 15-20%. Instead of cane sugar, you can take ordinary white.

In a bowl, combine the egg with the sugar and stir with a whisk. You can leave the mass for 10 minutes to completely dissolve the sugar.

Add the sour cream and soft butter and stir again.

In parts, sprinkle the flour sifted with baking powder and salt.

Knead the soft, elastic, non-sticky dough. If necessary, adjust the amount of flour up or down. See consistency.

From the dough, roll small balls the size of walnuts or slightly smaller.

Place the resulting balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Place the baking tray in the oven preheated to 180 ° C and bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes until golden. The balloons should remain soft.

Transfer the finished dough balls to a bowl and cool. If you don't want to tinker with dough, you can replace the balls with finished cookies of the same shape.

Now make the cream. Cocoa take quality, for example, Golden Label. Poor quality cocoa can crisp on the teeth. Instead of cane sugar, you can take ordinary white. Eggs need large selection. If the eggs are small, take 3 pieces.

In a bowl, combine the eggs and sugar and stir until combined.

Add the sifted flour and cocoa and stir with a whisk until smooth.

With constant stirring, pour in the milk at room temperature.

Pour the mixture into a saucepan and place on a small heat. Cook the cream, without ceasing to stir, until thickened. When the cream thickens, remove the saucepan from the heat.

Add the butter to the chocolate custard and stir until combined. Cool the cream slightly. It has to be warm. Hot cream can greatly soak previously baked cookies and it will lose shape.

While the cream cools, chop walnuts with a knife or break into small pieces with your hands. Walnuts can be replaced with hazelnuts, pecans or other nuts to taste.

Put the previously baked cookies and chopped walnuts in a bowl. Add the warm chocolate cream and stir quickly.

Put the resulting mass on a slide on a dish. Garnish the cake with halves of the peeled walnuts and refrigerate overnight.

Cut the finished cake into portions and serve. Enjoy your meal!
