After searching quite a lot, I finally found this recipe that pretty well duplicates the maple nut cake they served at our local buffet before it closed down. I found it . My husband dearly loves this cake, with it's maple-y goodness and walnuts.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon maple extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease an 8x8 inch square pan.
2. Cream the butter, add the sugar and continue creaming until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
4. Stir in the maple flavoring.
5. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6. Add the flour mixture in 3 parts alternately with the milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour.
7. Stir in the walnuts and pour in the prepared pan.
8. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until an toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
9. Let cake cool completely, then frost with Maple Butter Frosting.
