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.
