Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  • Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan, or hit it up with the butter-and-flour spray of your choice.
  • Pulse cooled walnuts and sugar in a food processor until finely chopped.
  • Add butter and process until combined, then add eggs and vanilla and process until combined.
  • Add flour, baking powder, and salt and pulse just until incorporated.
  • Spread batter in cake pan.
  • Bake until cake is just firm to the touch and a wooden pick inserted into center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Cool 15 minutes in pan, then turn out onto a rack and cool completely.
  • Whisk lemon juice (if using) into jam. Spoon jam over cake.
  • Beat heavy cream with sour cream, sugar, and vanilla until it holds soft peaks, then spoon over jam
  • Do ahead: Cake (without topping) keeps, well-wrapped, at room temperature for 4 days. With topping, it has kept so far in the fridge quite nicely for over a day.
