This gloriously simple cake can be made with the usual pantry items,\u00a0 a good sized bowl and a whisk – if that is your desire.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Or you can whip it up with\u00a0 hand held electric beaters or a stand mixer.\u00a0 The results are a tender, butter-rich, nutty cake.\u00a0 Top it with a generous swipe of frosting and you’ve just swanned your way to creating a delectable, delicious, no stress cake.<\/p>\n

I am a volunteer at our Ladner hospital thrift shop. It’s a busy operation and our morning tea break is appreciated. \u00a0\u00a0 I call it The Fellowship of\u00a0 Cookie and Cake Bakers.\u00a0 The table is always graced with volunteers home baked goodies.\u00a0 The\u00a0 discussions are frequently about\u00a0 food in general and baking in great detail.\u00a0 Recipes are shared and stored in a three ring binder for anyone looking for baking inspiration.<\/p>\n

The women I work with are mostly retired.\u00a0 They donate a great deal of time and energy to their volunteer work.\u00a0 They still love to bake but appreciate recipes that that don’t require a lot of prep time.\u00a0 Some prefer recipes that are not too complicated or require too many ingredients.\u00a0 And, they don’t want to spend a lot of time shopping for ingredients that are difficult to find.<\/p>\n

An easy one bowl cake recipe means less time is spent mixing the ingredients and less time in clean up.\u00a0\u00a0 Make this recipe once and it will be yours forever.\u00a0 The chopped walnuts are toasted in the butter then added to the eggs, sugar and sour cream and vanilla and whisked\u00a0 until well combined. Then add the flour, baking powder and soda and whisk to combine and pour into your cake pan.\u00a0 You can add optional flavours such as instant espresso powder or cardamon. It also bakes beautifully in a loaf pan or double the recipe and bake in a\u00a0 Bundt pan.\u00a0 The Butter Maple frosting does require an electric hand mixer or stand mixer.<\/p>\n
