Walnut Cake with Raspberry & Lemon Glaze (163), 210

If you love nut cakes, this is a nice one to consider. It will be deliciously moist if you do not overbake it. Apricot spread can be substituted for the raspberry spread.

3/4 cup non-fat milk
2 tablespoons oil
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Beat together first 4 ingredients until blended. Beat in remaining ingredients until blended. Pour batter into a paper-lined 10-inch springform pan and bake at 350-degrees for about 25 minutes, or until top is golden brown. Allow to cool in pan. When cool, remove from pan and spread top with Raspberry Spread and drizzle top with Lemon Glaze. Serves 12.

Raspberry Spread:
Heat 3 tablespoons Raspberry Spread (sweetened with fruit juice), until liquefied. (This can be done in 15 seconds in a microwave and facilitates spreading.) Quickly spread over cooled cake. This makes a very thin layer. (Add 7 calories per serving.)

Lemon Glaze:
Stir together 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice until blended. (Add 10 calories per serving)
(About 163 calories per serving-using Raspberry Spread and Lemon Glaze)
