Instructions
- In a saucepan, bring the soy milk to a boil.
- In a separate bowl, mix the flour with a small amount of the boiling milk to create a smooth paste.
- Gradually add the flour paste to the boiling milk, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
- Let the mixture boil for about 5 minutes while stirring, then remove from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- In a separate bowl, cream the vegan butter with the powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the rum and mix well.
- Once the milk mixture has cooled, combine it with the creamed butter mixture, stirring until smooth to form the cream filling.
- Stir in the ground walnuts until evenly distributed in the cream filling.
- Lay one wafer sheet on a flat surface and spread half of the cream filling evenly over it.
- Place the second wafer sheet on top of the cream, spread the remaining cream filling over it, and top with the third wafer sheet.
- Place the final wafer sheet on top, pressing down gently to ensure the layers stick together.
- Dust the top of the cake with a little powdered sugar.
- Cover and allow the cake to rest overnight so the flavors can meld and the wafers can absorb the cream.
- Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Cool the cooked milk-and-flour base fully before mixing with butter so the cream stays smooth.
- Resting overnight is key: the wafers soften and the walnut filling becomes sliceable.
- If your walnuts are very coarse, the cake will be more textured; finely ground gives a smoother bite.
