This cake is very good and I love, love the fact it does not need frosting. Very good with a cup of coffee or tea. A keeper!

I used Black Walnuts instead of English Walnuts. The cake reminded me of the cake my grandmother used to make.

I substituted classic yellow cake mix instead of butter recipe mix. I still added the same amount of butter, apple sauce, and eggs the recipe called for. I added extra finely chopped walnuts. This recipe was delicious. The cake is light, moist, and fluffy. Baking time was just over 40 minutes.- Careful not to over bake. At most this cake could handle a light glaze, but frosting would be too heavy. The powder sugar and cinnamon dusting was pretty.
