    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a cake pan.

    2

    Separate the eggs. In a clean bowl, beat 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. Add the melted butter and milk, and mix until combined.

    4

    Break up the chestnut purée with a fork, and add it to the egg yolk mixture.

    5

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.

    6

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chestnut mixture, mixing until just combined.

    7

    Gently fold in the beaten egg whites to ensure the batter remains light and airy.

    8

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

    9

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

    10

    Remove from the oven and let cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar and serving.
