As usual, a little note: do you know the origin of the word peanut? This word comes from the Aztecs and was called Tlacacahuatl. This recipe serves 6 to 8 people. The texture is the key point: soft butter and yogurt create a very tender, almost melting crumb. Toasted peanuts bring crunch and a roasted flavor that contrasts beautifully with the vanilla sweetness of the cake.
