To prepare the Pakoca cake you must have two containers to mix the various components.

In the first container put flour, potato starch, brown sugar, baking powder and 100 g of peanuts made into flour with the pulverizer.

Mix everything well.

In the second container put the melted butter at room temperature, the two eggs and the milk.

Stir until a homogeneous liquid is obtained.

Associate the contents of the second container with the first and mix well until obtaining a cream.

Add the remaining peanuts to the cream and mix well.

In a buttered pan and sprinkled with flour, pour the cream slowly.

While pouring the cream you have to put a little salt in the cream, so that it is evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Put in pre-heated oven at 200 degrees for 3 minutes and then lower the temperature to 180 degrees.
