Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the chopped nuts. Add the dry ingredients and mix well. Grease and dust with flour tow 23 cm cake pans. Pour in batter and bake in a preheated 180ÂșC oven 55-60 minutes. Serve warm. Can be wrapped and stored in refrigerator for up to a week, which improves flavor and makes the cake bread more moist.
