Gradually add beaten eggs little by little until combined and add coffee powder and kahlua it and mix well.

Sift the plain flour and baking powder the second time directly to the batter with ground almond and gently fold well with a rubber spatula. Then add 1 tbsp fresh milk into it and fold the batter to smooth.

Pour batter into prepared cake pan and sprinkle almond flakes on top

Bake at preheated oven at 190C for 10 minutes. Then reduce temperature to 170C and bake for another 25 - 30 minutes or skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
