  • 7 eggs
  • A few drops of vanilla essence
  • 5 oz caster sugar
  • 2 oz fine dry white breadcrumbs
  • Chocolate icing
  • 3 oz chopped walnuts and toasted almonds
  • A few blanched nuts to decorate

    • How To Cook:
    1. Separate the eggs and whisk the yolks with the sugar until they are thick and creamy.

    2. Whisk the egg whites stiffly. Mix together the crumbs and the nuts.

    3. Add the vanilla essence to the egg yolks and sugar, and fold in the egg whites and the nuts.

    4. Put the mixture into 3 8-inch greased layer-cake tins, and bake in a moderate oven (350°F) for about 25 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned.

    5. Allow the cakes to cool in the tins before carefully turning them out.

    6. When cold, fill and top with soft chocolate icing.

    CHOCOLATE ICING:
    1. Put 3 eggs and 6 oz. caster sugar into a double saucepan, and stir until the mixture thickens, taking great care that it does not overheat and curdle.

    2. Remove from the heat and stir in 2 oz. melted chocolate and a little vanilla essence.

    3. Beat until the filling is thick enough, and then spread it between the cakes and over the top.

    4. Decorate with a few nuts.
