Method: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a cake tin ( preferably 9X2 inches).
Grind the nuts with 3 tbsps of sugar in a food processor/blender.
Beat the egg yolks, one at a time, with the remaining sugar in another container.
Fold in the ground walnuts. Stir in the breadcrumbs, cocoa, rum and coffee.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt until they make stiff peaks. Use a rubber scraper to fold this into the walnut mixture.
Pour this batter into the prepared cake tin and bake till the top of the cake springs back, for about 45-50 mins. Let it stand for 5 mins and then turn out and cool it on the rack.
