Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a food processor, pulse the 1.5 cups mixed nuts until finely ground but not pasty. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 1 cup flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
Step 3
In a large bowl, beat 0.5 cup softened butter and 0.75 cup sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add 3 eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
Step 4
Fold the nut-flour mixture into the butter mixture alternately with 0.25 cup milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35-40 minutes.
Step 6
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
