My walnut cake is nice to eat. The only problem is it is too soft and breaks easily causing the walnuts to fall off. I tried your method a number of times but the problem still persists. Please advise.

I hv baked this again and again for family and friends. It has always turn out well. Instead of milk, I put cream and it turns out more moist!

Baked this today was yummy! Thank you for sharing, you have helped me become a better cook ever since leaving Malaysia! Would be helpful to mention the size of the pans used, I ended up using a larger pan but reduced baking time and turned out delicious albeit it did not achieve a loaf height :)

I just made it and it is delicious. I thought the batter was quite thick so I added about 1/4 cup of milk. It was still thick and needed to be spread in the pan. I used an 8×8 pirex. The end result was a surprisingly light and buttery sponge. The walnut taste comes right through. I served it with a dollop of vanilla whip cream, but honestly it does not need any icing. I will make it again, for sure!
