"Er hat einen Nusskuchen mit Schokolade gemacht."

Translation: He made a nut cake with chocolate.

Is a Nusskuchen a particular type of cake? I've never heard an English person just say "nut cake". Maybe walnut cake, almond cake etc.

There's plenty of recipes here: https://www.chefkoch.de/rs/s0/nusskuchen/Rezepte.html , so it is a term for a class of cakes which use nuts as ingredients, yes.

Especially when you know English slang and you know what "nut" stands for XD

Und jetzt will ich einen Nusskuchen mit Schokolade!

[SharonNaor]

Is Kuchen a weak noun? why is it einen and not eine?

[Qazzio]

Cake (Kuchen) is a masculine noun. Der Kuchen singular, die Kuchen plural. Maybe you are confused with kitchen - die Küche?

lecker!!

[AmandaSieg5]

What does it mean for Kuchen to be plural but masculine? Is this a special type of plural?

Why was "he made a chocolate nut cake" not accepted?

[AymaneSali]

the reason is the quantity : your phrase means that you made a chocolate cake with nuts but the phrase is a nut cake with chocolate [topping for expl] more nuts than chocolate

[YiannisIoa5]

Why "he had made a nut cake with chocolate" is not accepted" Please help me understand this. Thank you!

[dmsky]

This can be translated as either past simple (he made) or present perfect (he have made).
"He had made" is past perfect, it would have been "Er hatte gemacht" in german.

Thank you!

Nusskuchen may be a known cake in Germany but in English we don't refer to a "nut cake".
