Cardamom-Walnut Pound Cake image

A number of years ago I ordered a slice of walnut cake at a local restaurant that was known for their homemade desserts. The cake was wonderful and I searched for a recipe to match it great taste. I found this one and I think it is just as scrumptious.-Rita Glieden, Hutchinson, Minnesota

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as well as I hoped. It was a bit dry and dense.
