For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of softened butter. Toast the walnuts lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty taste. A glaze made with powdered sugar and milk can be drizzled over the cooled cake for added sweetness. To make the cake even more decadent, add chocolate chips to the batter or swirl in a layer of cream cheese filling.

Jan 10, 2025I followed the recipe exactly, and my cake was a bit dry. Next time, I'll try adding a little more sour cream.
