While organizing my cookbooks, I ran into a neat old book that was my Great Grandma's. I had forgotten that I had it stashed away. Here is a recipe for "Caramel Walnut Cake". I thought it'd be a good way to use the walnuts that I've collected this fall. Caramel Walnut Cake
1/2 c butter 2 eggs 1 c. sugar 3/4 c milk
2/3 c. walnut meats 2 t. orange flavoring 2 1/4 c flour 2 1/4 t b.powder
1/4 t. salt
Cream shortening, adding sugar gradually. When light and fluffy add well beaten eggs.
Blend thoroughly. Stir in walnut meats and orange flavor then add dry ingredients alternating with milk. Bake 25 minutes.... She didn't specify the temperature of the oven. She baked the old fashioned way, with a wood burning stove.
