Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, continuing to beat until whites are firm and moist. Beat yolks with remaining sugar until thick and straw-colored. Add 1 tbsp. brandy. Stir bout 1/4 of the whites into yolks, then pour yolks and nuts over whites; fold together gently. Transfer batter to prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake at 350øF for 35 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched. Cool in pan, sprinkle with remaining brandy, cover with waxed paper and damp tea towel. Chill for 1 hour. Invert cake onto clean tea towel, remove pan and carefully peel off paper. Trim crusty sides and divide cake evenly into 4 rectangles. (FILLING): Sprinkle gelatin over cream and whip. Stir in icing sugar and brandy. Layer cakes and filling on platter, saving enough cream to frost top and sides and to make rosettes along bottom sides with a pastry tube. Position walnuts in rosettes. This cake can be made half a day in advance and chilled. Cut into 10 slices.
