Original Recipe Yield 12 servings

Ingredients

1/3 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce, divided
GLAZE:
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Sprinkle walnuts into a greased 10-in. fluted tube pan. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Stir in almond extract. Combine the dry ingredients; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream. Spread half of the batter over walnuts. Top with half of the cranberry sauce. Repeat layers. Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients until smooth; drizzle over cake.
