Equipment

A Plastic disposable cup
An 11” round baking pan (28 cm)

Ingredients

Dough:

  • 4 yolks
  • 4 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast (½ oz. /14 g)
  • 2¼ teaspoons baking powder (⅓ oz. / 10 g)
  • 1 cup sugar (7 oz. / 200 g)
  • 5 teaspoons vanilla sugar (1 oz. /20g)
  • 2½ sticks butter-flavored shortening (300 g)
  • 3½ cups flour (if the dough is too sticky, add some more) (15½ oz. /440 g)

Cream:

  • 4 egg-whites
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 cup sugar (7 oz. / 200 g)
  • 4 tablespoons instant coffee

Instructions

  • Dough:
  • Mix all your dough ingredients. Knead them thoroughly until you get a smooth, homogeneous mixture.
  • Place the mixture in a pot, then cover it with plastic wrap. Then place it for a minimum of 3 hours in the fridge. You may leave it overnight for better consistency.
  • Cream:
  • Beat your egg yolks and add a sprinkle of salt. Regularly add sugar until your cream is smooth and homogenous.
  • Add instant coffee and beat your mixture until you get a uniform color
  • Cake:
  • Take your dough out of the fridge and divide it into 5 equally-sized balls.
  • Bring over a baking pan and line it with parchment paper or oil to prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Using two parchment papers, roll out your balls until they reach the baking pan’s size. Once you finish, you should have 5 layers similar in dimensions to your baking pan.
  • Put your first layer in the baking pan and spread some cream all over it. Top the cream with the chopped walnuts.
  • Repeat the previous step 3 more times.
  • Don’t add anything on the last layer. Instead, pierce it with a fork to allow for breathability.
