  15. 30 grams of chopped Walnuts, this is where you want to use your scale. You’ll get more pow for the points
  16. Bake 45-50 minutes or until inserted skewer comes out clean, this one is tricky although skewer was clean mine could have done with 5 more minutes, ovens vary so check at 45 mins.
  17. Let cool for 20 minutes before turning out onto chosen plate.
