ENGADINER NUSSTORTE (NUT CAKE)
A dense caramel walnut pastry cake- think of it like a pecan pie with a lid! Traditional from the Graubunden part of Switzerland. The crust is quite biscuit like.

Steps:
- Cream butter and sugar.
- Mix flour, rind, salt and egg on high speed until a dough is formed.
- Divide the dough into 1/3 and 2/3 parts, wrap well in foil and chill for minimum 1/2 hour.
- In the meantime, heat the sugar for the filling until it caramelises to a very light brown.
- Heat the cream (can be in microwave) and add it to the caramel, stirring rapidly.
- Add the honey, heat until it reaches a rolling boil.
- Add nuts and stir well. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Mix well and allow to cool.
- Roll out the larger of the pastry dough rolls and fit into a greased 24cm springform pan to cover the base and sides.
- Pour in the cooled filling.
- Roll out the remaining dough to form a lid for the cake. Put on top of the filling and join the edges well.
- Paint the top of the cake lightly with whisked egg yolk.
- Cook the cake at about 180 degrees for 50-60 minutes.
- Take the cake out of the oven and allow to cool. Do not remove outside of tin until cool! The cake should be totally cold before serving- I put mine in the fridge on the base, and only take it off the base once it's cold and the filling has set. Otherwise if the filling is still hot the bottom will sag when you pick it up.

GERMAN COFFEE CAKE WITH NUTS AND CHOCOLATE ( NUSSKUCHEN )
My most requested recipe. It also got me the sweetest compliment I ever had on my baking. - When the five year old french niece of my best friend came visiting with her parents she was very shy. When she had tasted a little of the cake she insisted that everone present, please try the cake immediately, because "c'est le meilleur gateau du monde" - it is the best cake in the world! And that is what my friends call it now when requesting it. :) - We like it topped with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream.

Steps:
- Note: Time for cooling is not included.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180C). For best removal of cake: Thoroughly grease pan with melted butter. Put it in the fridge for 5 minutes. Remove, fill with 2 tablespoons flour, shake pan over the sink until evenly dusted with flour. Discard any loose flour. Keep dusted pan in fridge until filling.
- Mix flour with baking powder.
- Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt in a large clean bowl with clean beaters until stiff but not dry. Set aside.
- In another large bowl beat soft butter and sugar until creamy white and fluffy. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beat until light in color and increased in volume, about 3 minutes.
- Put nuts and chocolate into bowl with the butter and egg yolks and mix a few seconds on low until just blended.
- Sift flour over mixture. Don't mix. Put 1 cup of egg white on flour.
- With a rubber spatula fold flour and the cup egg white into nut mixture, this will be rather stiff, but it does not need to be blended completely.
- Give rest of egg white on nut mixture and fold it in until completely blended. (If you try to mix in flour without egg white first and then fold in all of egg white at once, the flour mixture will be too firm to do this, therefore the two steps.).
- Fill batter evenly into pan.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 60-75 minutes. If it browns too much reduce heat by 15 degrees and cover loosely with parchment paper.
- Test doneness by inserting a wooden skewer into the middle of the cake. If only melted chocolate but no crumbs stick to it the cake is done. Remove from oven.
- Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then carefully lay it on the side and let cake slip out of form. You may cut with a thin knife along the sides between cake and pan to make sure it will come out.
- Best eaten while still a little warm but will keep several days. Dust with a little powdered sugar before serving if you like. Cut into 1/2 inch slices. Serve with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream.
- Note: Using fresh unsalted butter, freshly ground nuts and a really good-quality chocolate are keys in making this cake really good. I usually make it with hazelnuts, and think this tastes slightly better than with walnuts :).

NUSSTORTE (NUT CAKE)
This recipe is a more simplified version of the swiss nut cakes (Engadiner Nusstorte). Because of the whipped cream frosting, this cake will not keep for very long.

Steps:
- Beat eggs, gradually adding the sugar, and continue beating until light and fluffy. Mix in the nuts and flour only until blended, then fold in the cooled, melted butter.
- Turn into a greased and floured 9-inch springform pan and bake in a 325 degrees F oven for 40 to 60 minutes, or until cake tests done. Cool cake for about 15 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool on a rack.
- While cake is cooling, stir all of the filling ingredients together over medium heat until smooth, and let the mixture come to a boil. Cool.
- When the cake is cold, split it in half and fill with filling mixture. Replace top layer.
- Whip cream until very thick, and add sugar and flavoring. Spread on cake or use a pastry bag with a fluted tube and your imagination.

GERMAN NUT CAKE
This old time passed down recipe was given to me by a dear friend. The cherries and walnuts in big bite size adds to the charm of this wonderful cake. The cinnamon sugar dusting adds a crunchy outside texture to this cake...Yum Yum!

Steps:
- Cream together the two cups of sugar, vanilla, margarine, and eggs.
- Add the sour cream and blend well.
- Add the dry ingredients (except the set aside ingredients).
- Blend together well.
- Prepare a bundt pan by coating it well with shortening and dusting the pan with the 3 tbs sugar and the 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon.
- Pour the cake batter into the pan and poke the walnuts and cherries evenly as possible down into the cake batter to distribute these two ingredients evenly.
- Or you can take your chances by adding them to the batter before pouring the batter into the bundt pan.
- Bake in a hot oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Enjoy!
