STEP 1
Finely chop the hazelnuts, blending them in a food mixer to reduce them to flour. In a bowl, mix the softened butter together with the sugar using a wooden spoon, working it until there is a creamy surface. Beat the eggs and the yolks, then add them to the previous mixture together with the grated lemon zest and the rum.

Pour the dough into a 24 cm diameter cake tin, which has been pre-greased and floured. Bake the cake in a pre-heated oven at 180°C for approximately 50 minutes.
