frangelico black walnt sour crm pound cake supreme
I cannot tell a lie, this cake requires a lot of patience & work. It is worth ALL OF YOUR EFFORTS ONCE IT IS DONE. The easy part has been done, with my easy to follow steps & picture directions. The cake is moist, because of the sour cream, apple sauce,& walnut oil. The flavor is outstanding. The nuts adds crunch texture & flavor. The frosting ELEVATES YOUR TASTE BUDS TO ANOTHER LEVEL. I created this recipe for our Family Reunion this year, & wanted to know if it would meet their approval. It works 2 the MAX. It is enough batter to fill my 30 cup capacity BUNDT pan or 2 reg BUNDT pans

Step 3Separate eggs into 2 separate bowls, Beat the egg whites to form a meringue, and set aside till needed.

Step 8In a separate cup or bowl add the Frangelico and evaporated milk together.

Step 9SIFT 5 1/2 CUPS FLOUR WITH THE BAKING POWDER, BAKING SODA, SALT & COCOA into a medium size bowl. SAVE THE REMAINING HALF CUP TO COAT THE WALNUTS. Then alternate the flour mixture into the creamed mixture alternately with the liquid milk mixture.

Step 10When the batter reaches near the top of the mixing bowl, you will need to:
-
Step 11Switch to a much larger bowl and use a hand mixer and spatula to mix and fold.
-
Step 12Alternate remaining flour mixture, into the much larger bowl,
-
Step 13With remaining liquid mixture. Beat until it is completely mixed.

Step 15Add coated walnuts to cake batter and then stir to blend with a large spatula or spoon.
-
Step 16Add the beaten egg whites into cake batter and gently fold into batter, going from top to bottom all the while you turn the bowl. Until all of the egg whites have been incorporated into the cake batter.
-
Step 17Spray cake pan liberally with Bakers Joy. Be sure to coat the entire tube of the pan and walls of the pan all the way to the top.
-
Step 18Pour batter evenly into cake pan, then smooth out the top with the back of your spatula. Place in 300 degree F. oven and bake for 1 hour and 55 minutes, at which time you should check cake to see if it is done by inserting a strand of spaghetti, or long wooden pick into cake, to see if it comes out clean. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR DURING THE FIRST HOUR AND 15 MINUTES OF BAKING.

Step 21Serve as desired. Refrigerate any left overs. Can store un used frosting in freezer for a later time if desired. I used chocolate covered raisins as a garnish, with additional walnuts, but that is optional.
-
Step 22PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU DIVIDE THIS RECIPE IN HALF YOU WILL NEED TO CUT THE BAKING TIME, YOU WILL NOT NEED 1 HOUR AND 55 MINUTES TO BAKE HALF OF THIS RECIPE. PLEASE CHECK AFTER THE FIRST HOUR AND 15 MINUTES, THEN REPEAT AGAIN AFTER AN ADDITIONAL 10 MINUTES OR SO if not fully baked.
