FAQ

Can I make this cake ahead of time? Yes! You can bake the cake layers and prepare the cream cheese filling a day in advance. Assemble and glaze the cake on the day you plan to serve it.

What nuts work best in this cake? Walnuts, pecans, and hazelnuts all work wonderfully in this recipe. Choose your favorite or use a mix.

Can I use milk instead of buttermilk? For best results, use buttermilk. However, if you don’t have any on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.

How do I prevent the cream cheese filling from oozing out? Make sure the cake layers are completely cool before assembling, and refrigerate the cake after glazing to help the filling set.
