Instructions
In a mixing bowl mix eggs, oil and sugar. Add cocoa powder, cocoa mix and the ground nuts and stir.
In another bowl mix the flour and baking powder, then slowly add to cake dough while stirring constantly. Add water and stir a little bit more.

Allow the cake to cool down. Then cut it horizontally into two pieces.
