Hazırlanışı

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and spray a 9 inch springform pan with baking spray. Place the toasted nuts in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Transfer the nuts to a mixing bowl along with the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter, whisking continuously. Dump the nut mixture into the bowl with the wet ingredients and use a wooden spoon to mix well. In a small bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Spoon the whites into the bowl with the batter and gently fold the whites in to lighten the batter, being careful not to over mix. Dump the batter into the prepared pan, and then bake for 45 minutes until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the cake 15 minutes, then remove the sides and cool to room temperature. Transfer the cake to a plate, and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
