Clean the pistachio nuts removing their hardest "shell"

 
Dives the nuts, for a few seconds, in boiling water to remove that reddish skin, which is around them.

 

Repeat the same procedure with the almonds or hazelnuts.

 
Then grind them with a grinder or food processor, reducing the nuts in a kind of wet flour. Reserve it.

 
In a bowl, mix the eggs with sugar and icing
sugar, until getting a whitish mixture.

 
After that, add to the mixture the melted butter,
pistachio/almonds or hazelnuts wet flour, and milk, mixing them very well.

 
Finally, add to the mixture all-purpose flour and
baking powder.

 
Then put the mixture in a baking-pan and bake it for about 25-30 minutes at 180 degrees or until
pushing a toothpick into the cake and it comes out clean it's cooked.
