This has been in the family some time. I am now a great-grandmother myself (I have one little great-granddaughter; in addition, I have three grandchildren and a son), and it's one of the recipes that my mother used to make long ago. I've lived on the farm where I was brought up all my life. I am a jack-of-all-trades in the kitchen, and my husband and I both enjoy hunting. -Beatrice Richard, Posen, Michigan

Tips:

  • Prep in Advance: To expedite baking, measure and prep ingredients beforehand. It's also helpful to toast walnuts prior to baking, as this enhances their flavor.
  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure ingredients like butter, cream cheese, and eggs are at room temperature before mixing, promoting a smooth batter and optimal rising.
  • Proper Measurement: Use a kitchen scale for accurate ingredient measurement, ensuring consistent results and a well-balanced cake.
  • Mixing Technique: Start by creaming softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Gradually incorporate eggs one at a time, followed by dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with buttermilk.
  • Filling Preparation: Combine chopped walnuts, spices, and brown sugar in a small bowl before incorporating them into the batter for even distribution.
  • Baking Pan Preparation: Grease and flour the baking pan thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking.
  • Oven Temperature: Preheat your oven to the specified temperature before placing the cake batter inside to ensure even baking.
  • Baking Time: Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is done. Alternatively, use an instant-read thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 200-205°F (93-96°C).
  • Cooling: Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before inverting it onto a wire rack. This prevents the cake from breaking apart.
  • Storage: Properly store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
