My mom made a cake very similar to this one. I don't know where she got the recipe. However she had a topping that consisted of 4 tbl butter and 4 tbl Karo syrup cooked together for about 3 minutes. She alternated whole walnuts and marashino cherries, about 4 or 5 of each, around the top of the cake and then poured the warm mixture of Karo and butter on top of the cake allowing it to drizzle down the side of the cake. Very pretty as well as yummy.

This is a wonderful recipe!! The cake comes out very moist and with a wonderful texture. I made one and it disappeared in no time at all. Now I am repeatedly asked to make it over and over. I would rate it a 6 if possible!!

This cake is fantastic...If you like black walnuts you will love it. I added another 1/2cup of walnuts and 1 t. of vanilla. I baked mine for 70 min.

This cake is moist and filled with flavor. Mine was finished in 1 hour. The outside was crispy, almost looked burnt in some spots, but inside was so moist and soft. I did make a few changes: I used regular walnuts because that's what I had at home; I didn't use any shortening at all; I used only used 2 cups of sugar instead of 3; upped the walnuts to 1 cup, and added 1 chopped apple. An excellent cake.

I made this cake for Thanksgiving and it was a major hit! I did increase the walnuts to 1 cup and also increased the vanilla to 1 tsp. The recipe makes a large and heavy cake. Nice texture, moist and crispy shell. Will make again...

Cake had a good texture. I was looking to find good recipe with black walnuts. I would make it again, but I couldn't give it 5 stars.

This cake was simple to assemble..I did bring my eggs and butter to room tempature. Not too mapley in flavor, the texture of the cake was great, very poundcake-like. The taste was amazing. I took this too a bbq and everyone said that it was good.

Ditto what CINDYDRAPER said. Yum Yum! I love black walnut ice cream, so when I saw this recipe, I had to try it. Delish, not too rich. Even my co-worker who hates walnuts said several times that it was really good! Perfect density and texture in my opinion.

This cake is simply outstanding. I put in a full cup of chopped black walnuts (because I love them) and added a simple maple flavored glaze while it was still warm. Even if you don't like black walnuts, the basic recipe is still a winner. Unbelievably tender crumb, slightly crispy crust...it's just what I like in a pound cake. I will make this again and again, experimenting with different flavors.
