"Here is a recipe my mother used to make ages ago. I remember her topping it with a cream cheese icing, but I don’t have that recipe. So, I have added one I like. I sometimes decorate the side of the cake with the chopped walnuts instead of adding them to the batter. You can also add golden raisins to the batter, 1/2 cup works perfectly."
