1/2 Cup biscuit crumbs ( i like a mix of gingernuts and arrowroot) but use whatever you have. 125gm freshly shelled Walnuts,ground fine.(500gms worth will make 4 tortes, hmmm,someone special must sell nuts such as this!)1 cup sugar ,3 large eggs.Line & grease your tin(23cm) heat oven 160,mix half the sugar with the nuts to grind finely, beat eggs until thick,add other half of sugar to eggs, then fold in crumb/sugar mixture. cook 30-40 mins leave in tin until cold. yummy sticky cake!

hmmm good question. It may suit being an extra layer in a cake. and quite possibly the filing on a slice base, but other than replacing the walnuts with almond I havent tried to use it for anything else. Thanks
