A dough is made from the given ingredients, and 4 sheets are rolled out. The ground walnuts are mixed with sugar and set aside. A baking tray is greased with margarine and sprinkled with a little flour to prevent the sheets from sticking, then the first sheet is prepared. A portion of the dough is taken and rolled out with a rolling pin, obtaining a thin sheet of about 0.5 cm. It is important that the sheet is even to bake uniformly during preparation.

After the first sheet has been rolled out, it is carefully placed in the prepared tray, ensuring it covers the bottom well. Next, half of the walnut and sugar mixture is evenly sprinkled over the surface of the sheet, ensuring it is evenly distributed to provide a delicious taste to each portion. Then, the second sheet of dough is rolled out, just as thin as the first, and carefully placed over the walnut mixture.

The process is repeated for the third sheet, again sprinkling the walnut and sugar mixture before placing the last sheet of dough. A splash of water or a beaten egg can be added to the edges of the sheets to stick them better together. Depending on personal preferences, one may choose to brush the surface of the last sheet with beaten egg to achieve a golden and glossy crust.

Once all the sheets are placed and the composition is ready, the tray is placed in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius. The baking time varies between 30 and 40 minutes, depending on the oven. It is essential to closely monitor the baking process, so in the last 10 minutes, one can check the browning of the top. When the surface becomes golden and appetizing, the tray is removed from the oven and allowed to cool completely.

After cooling, the cake can be portioned and served. Powdered sugar can be sprinkled on top for an elegant look. This delicacy is perfect to be enjoyed alongside a cup of tea or coffee, bringing a touch of joy and flavor to any moment of the day. Enjoy your meal!
