Ingredients

1 cup pumpkin seeds

1 cup flour(*)

4 eggs

1/2 cup icing sugar

1/4 cup sugar (or vanilla sugar)

1 tablespoon rum

a pinch of cinnamon

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 cup white cuverture (or simply white chocolate)

3 tbspoon coconut fat (copha)

(optionally: 1 tablespoon pumpkin seed oil)

Directions

1. Beat yolks with sugar and whites with icing sugar. Grind pumpkin seeds (possibly in coffee grinder)

2. Sieve flour with baking powder, cinnamon and ground seeds. Add rum. Whisk yolks with icing sugar and whites with crystal sugar (vanilla sugar). Add yolks to the flour, stir well (**) and add well beaten egg whites. bake about 30 minutes (or until the surface of the cake becomes golden) in 350 oven.

3. Prepare the icing: melt chocolate with copha (and pumpkin seed oil) in a double boiler. When icing is homogeneous and still warm, while the cake is already cool, you can start covering thr cake with a spatula. Don't be afraid of oil in the icing - it will only give a green colour to the icing.

I love pumpkin seeds and especially pumpkin seed oil. It has to be cold pressed, it's expensive but what a treat on your salad !!!
