Today I propose a beautiful and tasty cake, the walnut cake: a delicate aroma, a soft dough with walnuts, a smooth glaze, and small fruits to decorate the top crown of the cake.
This dessert will be one of the desserts I will bring to the Christmas lunch with my relatives, and I hope they like it too!
Instead of walnuts, we can use almonds, and we can also change the final decoration by perhaps using a rocher glaze, other fruits like citrus…

FOR PREPARING THE WALNUT CAKE
Bake at 340-355°F in static mode for about 35-40 minutes, depending on the characteristics of our home oven.
Once cooked, let it cool possibly on a cooling rack for cakes, and in the meantime, prepare the glaze by vigorously mixing the powdered sugar with the lemon juice, adjusting the fluidity of the sauce.
Once the cake is cool, pour the glaze over it and decorate with small orange segments, raspberries, and a few fresh mint leaves.
Isn’t this cake very scenic?
Enjoy your meal! Annalisa
