I've made this cake a couple of times for family holidays, pretty good.

Mix for bottom that becomes the top

100 g hazelnuts
1/2 dl sugar
75 g butter
Mix for the cake

3 eggs
3 dl sugar
1 dl boiling water
3 dl flour
1 1/2 tbs cocoa
1, 5 tsp baking powder
Instructions:

For the topping: Chop nuts. Mix nuts, sugar and room-tempered butter and press the mix into the bottom of a oven pan.

For the cake: Whisk eggs and sugar fluffy. Add boiling water, flour, cocoa and baking powder. Pour the mix over the filling in the oven pan.

Bake in the middle of the oven at 180 Celsius degrees for 50 minutes (test with a toothpick when it comes out dry the cake is done) .

i'd eat that. the part about it coming out dry is concerning, but i imagine the layer of frosting in the middle helps.

There are two separate items that use the name scone. The English scone, which resembles a biscuit, that you would have with cream and jam and the American scone which is more like a big soft cookie and is usually triangle (in my experience)

I adore an English scone with cream and jam and I don't really care for American scones.
