Tips:
- Use high-quality dates. Look for plump, moist dates that are free of blemishes. Deglet Noor dates are a good variety to use in this cake.
- Chop the dates finely. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the cake.
- Toast the walnuts. Toasting the walnuts will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cake batter, making it light and airy.
- Gradually add the eggs. Adding the eggs one at a time will help to prevent the cake batter from curdling.
- Fold in the dry ingredients. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can toughen the cake.
- 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.
