Line bottoms of two 6 inch cake pans with parchment paper. (do not grease the sides or the bottom).

Then find your favorite mixing bowl.
Add egg whites, mix until foamy and then add sugar and mix until firm peaks and sugar is incorporated.
Your next step is to add the mixture of the flour and hazelnut.
IMPORTANT: You are not going to use the mixer at this point.
Stir egg mixture and flour mixture using your favorite spatula.
Stop mixing when no streaks of flour remain.
Important:Be sure the flour is incorporated.
Pour the batter into 6 inch prepared pan
I used 1 3/4 cups for each baking pan.
Bake at 350 F until done. (start checking after 10 minutes)
Remove from the oven and cool.
How to make the Milka chocolate filling?
Add 6 eggs yolks and sugar into the mixing bowl. Mix for about 3 minutes.
Then add 3 Dr. Oetker Vanilla pudding, flour and 1/2 cup milk. (room temperature).
Mix until all ingredients are incorporated. (another minute or two)
Meanwhile, add 3 1/2 cup cold milk into large pot.
Bring the milk to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the egg/pudding mixture.
Return to heat and stir non stop for about 3 minutes or until thickness.
Remove from heat, find 2 bowls and pour half of the filling into each bowl.
Then to the bowl number 1 add hazelnuts Milka chocolate and stir until chocolate is incorporated.
To the bowl 2 add the white chocolate and stir until chocolate is melted and happy.
Your next step is to cover each bowl with plastic wrap and let it cool.
While the filling is cooling, mix the butter. Set aside.
When chocolate filling (or the filling with the hazelnuts chocolate) is cooled add half of the mixed butter. (1/2 cup butter). Mix until incorporated. (2 to 3 minutes if using KitchenAid mixer)
Then to the white chocolate filling add half of the mixed butter. (or 1/2 cup). Mix it.
After that you need to mix heavy cream and whip it until you get thick whip cream.
So, you just made 3 filling for your best chocolate torte.
You made: chocolate or dark filling, white filling and your third one is the heavy cream.
BTW, you are almost done.
Your next step is to build the best MILKA chocolate torte you can imagine.
ASSEMBLY OF THE CHOCOLATE CAKE
Using the same 6 inch removable pan start building the cake. (or 8 inch if you bake the cake in 8 inch pan)
Place 1 cake layer (made of egg whites)
Then add chocolate (brown) filling + white chocolate filling + heavy cream
Second Layer or Ferrero Cake (picture 4 below)
White chocolate (yellow) filling + hazelnut chocolate filling (dark filling) + heavy cream
3rd cake layer (made of egg whites)
At this point transfer the torte into the freezer. (for a few hours or overnight)
This cake is so tall it can play the basketball. (Hello Jokic we have the challenge for you?)
Since this cake is so tall I needed to build the wall around the cake pan. It was done by using the aluminum foil. As you can see it is not the perfect. (and the purpose of baking fun is not to be the perfect at the every stage. However, when you are eating it, this is the perfect chocolate cake)
After a few hours or next day
For the next step you will need the knife. Use the knife to cut extra filling around the cake.
And you almost (just) made the perfect cake. See the picture 3.
THE FINAL STEP – DECORATION
Cover the whole torte with heavy cream and decorate with hazelnuts, shaved chocolate.
Enjoy and share.
Review the Steps

Then add 3 Dr. Oetker Vanilla pudding, flour and 1/2 cup milk. (room temperature).

Meanwhile, add 3 1/2 cup cold milk into large pot.
Bring the milk to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the egg/pudding mixture.
Return to heat and stir non stop for about 3 minutes or until thickness.
Remove from heat, find 2 bowls and pour half of the filling into each bowl.
Then to the bowl number 1 add hazelnuts Milka chocolate and stir until chocolate is incorporated.
To the bowl 2 add the white chocolate and stir until chocolate is melted and happy.
Your next step is to cover each bowl with plastic wrap and let it cool.

When chocolate filling (or the filling with the hazelnuts chocolate) is cooled add half of the mixed butter. (1/2 cup butter). Mix until incorporated. (2 to 3 minutes if using KitchenAid mixer)
