Chestnut cake

Ingredients . 350 g wheat flour . 150 g chestnut flour . 1 bag of baking powder (10g) . 150 g sugar . 3 eggs . 150 g melted butter . a flavouring essence (anise powder, cinnamon, vanilla paste ...)
1. Sieve the wheat flour and chestnut flour together, with the baking powder. Add sugar and mix the whole. Add the flavour here if it is dry or powder (cinnamon, anise,…).
2. Add the eggs and the melted butter. Add the flavour now if it is liquid (lemon juice,…).
3. Mix the whole until obtaining a homogeneous paste. Add the flavour now if it is in paste (vanilla paste,…).
4. Press the dough between the palm of your hands to homogenise it : that consists in crushing the paste on the working plan to mix it without giving it body (elasticity).
5. Lower then the paste using rolling pin over two metal rules so as to roll out the dough with a constant thickness (approximately 1 cm).
6. Cut out in the undercrust the forms of your choice, and brush them of a mixture of egg, crème fraiche, salt and sugar. This last operation is optional.
7. Bake in hot oven (200°C - thermostat 7) during 8 to 9 minutes.
