Instructions

Cake Mix

1. Preheat the oven to 350F.
2. Using a hand or stand mixer, whip up 3 egg whites and add 3 tablespoons of sugar.
3. After whipping the egg whites really well, add the 3 egg yolks and ensure to incorporate it well.
4. Add 3 tablespoons of flour and fold it in gently.
5. Transfer the mixture to a greased and floured cake pan.
6. Place it over for about 15 to 20 minutes depending on your oven.

While the cake is baking, prepare the walnut mixture.

1. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat 3 sticks of butter (room temperature) really well with 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar.
2. Add 5 egg yolks and 1 tablespoon of vanilla to it.
3. In a separate bowl, mix ground walnuts and ground graham crackers together. You will want a total of 7 cups in the end and the mixture should be 2 parts ground walnuts and 1 part graham crackers.
4. Add 3 cups of walnut mix to the egg/butter mixture. Mix it in well.
5. Add 1 cup of fresh orange juice and 2 cups of walnut mix. Mix it in well.
6. Add 2 more cups of walnut mix. Once the cake is ready, pour 1/2 cup orange juice all over the cake. This will keep the cake nice and moist.
