BLACK WALNUT POUND CAKE WITH CARAMEL NUT GLAZE
I found this recipe on the web, stating that it was 125 years old. I tried it and it was so good! I make this whenever I have black walnuts on hand and I added my caramel nut glaze. I've served this to company and taken it to potlucks and everyone loves it. I usually don't get to bring any home. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your pound cake will be. Look for organic, locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
- Gradually add the eggs, one at a time: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
