Steps:

• Beat the eggs and the sugar with an electric mixer until the mixture thickens and turns a very pale yellow. Add butter, 3/4 of the nuts (ground or chopped), honey, soda and flour.
• Continue by kneading the dough with your hands, but it should remain soft and fluffy (not like cookie dough).
• Put the dough in a pan, smooth it with a spatula and bake at 180°C for 35-40 minutes or until the surface is light brown. Take it out of the oven and let it cool.
• For syrup, boil the water with the sugar and some vanilla for about 7 minutes, until it thickens, and continue stirring it the entire time. Let it cool down for a bit, until it is mildly warm and still relatively liquid.
• When the pastry is cool, pour the syrup over and sprinkle everything with the remaining nuts. Let the whole thing cool down, so the syrup really thickens.
