Directions
Mix all the wet ingredients for the cake in a large bowl, then slowly sift in the dry ingredients. Pour the batter into a prepared loaf pan and bake at 400°F for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. While the cake cools, combine all the frosting ingredients, except for the walnuts. Generously frost the cake, garnish with walnuts, slice, and serve. Enjoy!
