I read it and do cook from it too..I have made quite a lot of recipes of hers in my blog and this is another addition to it.

    The cake may look complicated, but it is actually pretty simple to make. There are two parts in this recipe, a honey walnut filling and a cake batter..I love the nutty honey filling which is surrounded by a vanilla pound cake..Delicious..

    Preparation Time : 20 mins
    Baking Time : 35 to 40 mins
    Serves : 8 to 10
    Recipe Source : Nigella Lawson

    Ingredients:

    For Honey Walnut Filling:
    All Purpose Flour / Maida - ½ cup heaped (around 75 grams)
    Unsalted Butter - 30 grams
    Cinnamon Powder - 1 tsp
    Walnuts - 150 grams Chopped
    Honey - ½ cup / 120 ml

    For Cake:
    All Purpose Flour / Maida - 2 ½ cup / 300 grams
    Baking Soda / Cooking Soda - 1 tsp
    Baking Powder - 1 tsp
    Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp
    Unsalted Soft Butter - 125 grams
    Sugar - ¾ cup
    Eggs - 2
    Yogurt / Curd - 1 cup / 240 ml

    Method:

    Preheat oven to 180 degree C. Grease a 23 cm bundt cake pan with oil and dust it with flour. Tap off the excess and set aside.

    First make the filling, take flour, butter in a bowl. Use a fork to mix it well so it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add in cinnamon, walnuts and honey. Mix well. So it forms a sticky mixture. 

    Take flour, baking soda and baking powder in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.

    Now take butter, sugar, vanilla in a bowl and use a beater to whip this till creamy.

    Now add in eggs one at a time and whip till creamy.

    Add in half of the flour mix and half of the yogurt. Fold gently, Now add in remaining flour mix and remaining yogurt. Fold again gently.

    Spoon ¾th of the mix into the pan and use a spoon which is dipped in some oil to create a hollow in the center.  Spread the mixture up the sides a little and around the funnel of the tin to create a rim. You don’t want the sticky filling to leak out to the sides of the tin.

    Dollop the honey filling carefully into the dent in the cake batter, then cover the filling with the remaining batter. Smooth the top and put the tin into the oven for 30 to 40 minutes.

    Now remove the cake tin from oven, let it cool down for 30 mins. Ease the sides with a butterknife. Invert the cake over a plate. Let it cool completely, now slice and serve.

      Hi

      I noticed that you are using Baking soda and Baking Powder together. Basically both are used for the same purpose i.e. to release carbon dioxide in the batter / dough for the spongy softness when baked.
      When using soda you've to bake it immediately because it starts releasing carbon dioxide instantly if delayed then all the air bubbles will escape and the mixture will become flat.
      Baking Powder is nothing but a combination of Baking Soda and Acidifying Agent along with starch. When you are use Baking powder you don't have bake it immediately because Carbon Dioxide is released only when it baked.
      So using Baking Soda and Baking Powder together is actually, double quantity of Baking Soda. To much of Baking Soda will to lead Bloating Stomach and not good for health.

      Thanks

      This cake had a lovely flavour but was extremely dense which was disappointing.. I would use a moist butter cake recipe and the same filling next time.
