Queen Esther Cake

A luxurious two-tone cake for a festive feast! Very tasty. Light and delicate Queen Esther cake with delicious creamy lemon cream. In the original, it was suggested to add poppy seeds or ground almonds to the dough. I added ground walnuts and did not lose. The cake turned out to be very tender and delicious.
