Nut pie with meringue
Description
The nut cake will be an excellent accompaniment to tea, coffee, milk, or compote. I want to note that it should be made specifically with walnuts. The cake is tender, slightly moist, not dry, and very fragrant. A detailed step‑by‑step description explains how to prepare it. The baking is ready. Serve it at the table.
