WALNUT CAKE WITH AMERICAN FROSTING
This cake makes a perfect autumnal wedding cake - in fact, we had it for our own wedding, baked by our dear friend Dervilla. We decorated it with sparklers and dark red rose petals, which made for a rather dramatic and beautiful effect. It keeps well, so you could send a slice to anyone who was unable to come to the reception. You don't need a wedding to enjoy this cake, however, as it's great for any special occasion.

Steps:
- Melted butter, for brushing pans
- 7 ounces all-purpose flour
- Pinch salt
- 1 generous teaspoon baking powder
- 7 tablespoons butter, softened
- 8 ounces caster sugar (superfine)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, separated
- 3 1/2 ounces shelled walnuts, roughly chopped
- 3 1/2 ounces milk
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush 2 (8-inch) or 3 (7-inch) cake pans or sandwich pans with melted butter, and dust with flour. Line the base of each pan with parchment or greaseproof paper.
- In a bowl, sift the flour with the salt, and baking powder.
- In a large bowl, or in an electric food mixer, cream the butter until soft. Add the sugar, and vanilla extract, and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks, and then stir in the chopped walnuts. Fold in a quarter of the flour and milk into the mixture, alternating each, until they are incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are stiff.
- Stir a quarter of the egg whites into the cake mixture, and then gently fold in the rest. Divide the batter between the tins, making a slight hollow in the center of each so that the cake rises evenly rather than forming a peak.
- Bake in the oven until firm to the touch or until a skewer inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean, about 16 to 20 minutes. Remove the cakes from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes, before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.
- To make the buttercream filling: Cream the butter until very soft, and then beat in the confectioners' sugar, and the vanilla extract. When the cakes are cool, spread the buttercream filling on one layer, and top with the second layer, sandwiching the layers together.
- Make the American frosting as described below. Spread the American frosting quickly over the cake with a palette knife, regularly dipping the knife into a jug of boiling water to help spread the icing. It sets very quickly at this stage, so speed is essential. Scatter with rose petals, if using, or arrange the walnut halves around the top of the cake, and allow the icing to set until it feels dry on the surface.
- To make the American Frosting: Ensure your cake is ready before you start, as this icing begins to set very quickly. Bring to the boil a saucepan of water large enough to hold a heatproof bowl. Place the egg whites in the bowl and whisk with a hand-held electric beater until very stiff.
- In a separate saucepan over a medium-high heat, dissolve the sugar in the water and boil for 5 to 10 minutes until the liquid is thick and syrupy and has reached the 'thread' stage - when the last few drops that fall from a metal spoon dipped into the syrup come off in one long, quite thick and syrupy thread.
- Pour the boiling syrup over the stiffly beaten egg whites, whisking all the time with the hand-held beater. Place the bowl in the saucepan of simmering water. Continue to whisk over the water for 10 to 15 minutes until the icing is snow white, very thick and meringue-like.
- Spread quickly over the cake with a palette knife, regularly dipping the knife into a jug of boiling water. The icing sets very quickly at this stage, so speed is essential.
SWEET, SALTY, SPICY PARTY NUTS
I find this technique much easier than the stovetop pan method. You'll get beautiful, perfectly frosted nuts that are roasted evenly, with no bitter burned spots.

Steps:
- Combine egg whites, sugar, water, and cream of tartar in in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Beat at low speed until mixture reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Do not stop beating while checking temperature, otherwise egg whites will overcook. Beat on high speed until mixture reaches 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 2 to 4 minutes.
- Remove bowl from heat and stir in vanilla and black walnut extracts. Beat egg whites to cool on high speed, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Place a large dollop of the beaten egg white mixture in a separate bowl. Add butter and beat until well combined. Continue beating in dollops of egg white mixture until all egg white is incorporated and frosting is smooth and fluffy. Use to frost any cake; garnish with black walnuts.

- Melt the butter on low heat. Add the chopped walnuts and stir until they are well coated. Then add the sugar.
- Once the sugar is added, raise the heat to medium and stir frequently for 5 minutes with a heat-resistant spatula. For the first 2 1/2 minutes or so, the sugar will soften but remain visible in granules. After that, it begins to soften and liquify. Once it begins to soften, keep moving the walnuts around. If necessary, lower the light to keep the sugar from burning.
- Immediately after the 5 minutes of cooking, pour the walnuts onto a parchment-lined pan or baking sheet in a single layer. They will cool down in less than 5 minutes. Try to separate the walnuts while they are still hot. As they cool, they will crisp up and if any remain attached, you can break them apart.
