Grease and flour two 9×1-1/2-inch* round baking pans; set aside.

and gingerroot. Add egg mixture to flour mixture. With a spoon, stir
till combined. Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake in a 350~ oven for 30 to 35 minutes or till a toothpick inserted
near center comes out clean. Cool on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove
cakes from pans. Cool thoroughly on racks.
Frost tops and sides with orange cream cheese frosting. To add texture
to frosting, use a cake comb. If desired, press nuts on sides of cake.

*NOTE: Your 9-inch round cake pans need to be at least 1-1/2 inches
deep or the batter may flow over the sides of the pans when baking.

till done. Frost with orange cream cheese frosting (you may have a
little left over).

brandy or orange juice. Gradually beat in enough powdered sugar to
