    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch (22cm) cake pan.

    2

    Separate the eggs. In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.

    3

    In a separate bowl, cream together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the melted butter and milk.

    4

    Mash the chestnut puree with a fork and add it to the egg yolk mixture.

    5

    Combine the almond flour and baking powder, then gradually add to the chestnut mixture.

    6

    Gently fold in the beaten egg whites, being careful not to deflate the batter.

    7

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.

    8

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    9

    Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan before inverting onto a serving plate. Decorate with flaked almonds and dust with powdered sugar.
