Notes

1. Use good quality butter.
2. Always beat or mix the batter in the same direction.
3. After adding the plain flour, don’t beat or mix the batter for long.
4. Don’t wait for so long to put the cake tray into the oven after you make the cake batter.
5. When you bake the cake set the oven to convection mode.
6. If you are not sure whether the cake is ready or not, insert a stick inside the cake and take it out. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
7. Wait until the cake comes to room temperature before flipping it on a flat surface and apply the icing topping cream.

Instructions

1. Get ready with butter, plain flour, sugar, eggs, cocoa powder, baking powder, and vanilla extract.

2. Chop the roasted cashew nuts as shown in the picture below.

3. Sift the plain flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder together to remove any clumps.

4. Separate the egg yolk and egg white as shown in the picture below.

8. Then add the beaten egg white little by little. Beat well after each addition.

11. Now, put the parchment paper on the cake tray. Pour the cake batter and spread it evenly.
