Cake Mix
Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe

Method

- Leave on a rack to cool.
Finishing
- Make up the icing by mixing the icing sugar with the milk then adding the other ingredients.
- Cut the cake in half and spread icing on top of the bottom layer.
- Place the top layer on top and finish with the rest of the icing and the remaining walnuts.
Serving suggestions
Good with coffee :-)
Chef's notes
The results appear to be good although I need one more trial run to be sure after making a few tweaks to the cooking process. I also might experiment with adding a little more cinnamon.
