  Chop the nuts. Put the nuts into the bottom of a greased Bundt cake pan. Grandma always used a hammer to chop the nuts.!!!...LOL (and pliers to pull a loose tooth)..OUCH! TIP SIX: I have a grinder, but it just as easy to put the nuts in a zip lock plastic bag, and crush with a rolling pin. TIP SEVEN: No rolling pin??? Not to worry, use the side of a drinking glass.. and roll away!
