Whisk until the volume is fluffy.
4.
Add the beaten eggs and continue to beat them evenly with a whisk. Beat until fluffy and light.

Use a rubber spatula to mix evenly, so that the flour and butter are completely mixed into a batter. At this time, the batter may be very sticky and inconvenient for shaping. Put the batter in the refrigerator for about half an hour to make the batter dry and not sticky.

Chop 40 grams of walnuts. Cut the walnuts as small as possible.
8.
The refrigerated batter is taken out and formed into a cylindrical shape as shown in the picture.

10.
Take out the frozen dough and cut it into 0.5cm thick slices.
11.

Put the baking tray into the middle layer of the preheated 180℃ oven, bake for about 10 minutes, take out, brush a layer of honey on the surface of the walnuts, put it back in the oven and bake for about 8 minutes, until the dough turns brown and ready to go out.
