- Grease and flour two 9-inch round pans. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
- Place the egg yolks and ¾ cup of sugar in the mixer and beat until fluffy (about 10 min.). Add the vanilla and coffee.
- Beat the egg whites in another bowl until frothy; gradually add the remaining sugar until soft peaks form.
- Fold the walnuts with the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently add 1/3 of the yolk mixture, then 1/3 of the egg white mixture, and continue until everything is combined.
- Pour the mixture into the greased pans and bake for 30 minutes.
- Let cool for 10 minutes and unmold.
- Prepare the frosting: In a small saucepan, combine the cream, honey, coffee, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and add the chocolate in pieces. Add the vanilla and stir, allowing everything to melt and combine.
- Place the first cake on a platter and cover with frosting. Place the other cake on top and cover the entire cake with frosting.
