1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
5 tablespoons water
1/2 cup ground walnuts
Filling

In large mixing bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar for 10 minutes or until light lemon-colored. Beat in vanilla. Combine cake flour and baking powder; add to egg mixture alternately with water, beating well. Fold in walnuts.

In another mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter. Pour into two greased and floured 9 inch round cake pans. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until toothpicks come out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

In mixing bowl, cream the butter, shortening and confectioners sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and cooled pudding. Split each cake into two layers. Place one bottom layer on a serving plate; spread with about 3/4 cup filling. Repeat layers. Garnish with chocolate curls, if desired.
