Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup chopped black or english walnuts
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup milk
frosting:
1-3/4 cups sugar
4 egg whites
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

In a bowl, toss walnuts with 1/4 cup flour; set aside. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla; mix well.
Combine the baking powder, salt and remaining flour; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk. Stir in the reserved nut mixture.
Transfer to a greased and floured 10-in. tube pan. Bake at 350° 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 heavy saucepan, combine sugar, egg whites, water and cream of tartar. With a portable mixer, beat on low speed for 1 minute. Continue beating on low speed over low heat until frosting reaches 160°, about 9 minutes.
Pour into the bowl of a heavy-duty stand mixer; add vanilla. Beat on high speed until frosting forms stiff peaks, about 7 minutes. Frost the cake. Yield: 12-16 servings.
