This traditional cake is perfect for any occasion and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Whether you’re an experienced baker or a novice in the kitchen, this recipe is easy to follow and yields delicious results.

Ingredients:

2/3 cup butter
150g
1 cup sugar
200g
6 eggs
300g
3/4 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
90g
2 tbsp baking powder
30g
1 cup hazelnuts
120g

Instructions:

1. Prep Work:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a cake tin or line it with parchment paper to ensure the cake doesn't stick.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This will take about 3-5 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
3. Add Eggs:
- Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. This helps to ensure that the eggs are fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. This helps to evenly distribute the baking powder and remove any lumps in the flour.
5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients into Wet:
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until fully combined. Do not overmix as this can result in a dense cake.
6. Add Hazelnuts:
- Gently fold the chopped or ground hazelnuts into the batter until they are evenly distributed.
7. Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and spread it out evenly.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool:
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve:
- Once the cake is completely cool, slice and serve. It can be enjoyed plain or with a dusting of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or any topping of your choice.

Tips:

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before you start mixing. This helps in achieving a smooth, creamy texture when blended with sugar.

- Use an electric mixer to whisk the eggs and butter-sugar mixture. This will save time and help incorporate more air, resulting in a lighter cake.

- Toasting the hazelnuts before adding them to the batter can enhance their flavor, giving the cake a richer nutty taste.

- Sift the flour and baking powder together to remove lumps and evenly distribute the baking powder within the flour.

- Be careful not to over-mix the batter once the flour is added. Over-mixing can result in a dense, heavy cake.

- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps to set the cake and makes it easier to handle.

With its delightful combination of buttery richness and nutty flavor, Louise's Tyroler Cake is sure to become a favorite in your baking repertoire. By following the steps carefully and considering the provided tips, you’ll be able to create a perfect cake every time. Enjoy this wonderful treat with your loved ones and share the joy of homemade baking.
