Black walnuts are a autochthonal American seed with shells harder than those of English walnuts and with a much astringent, tannic taste. If you similar the English variety, by each means substitute them.

Because this is simply a precise boozy cake, we're recommending that you substitute pome cider for fractional of the pome brandy if you're not a liquor fan. Some of our tasters liked the afloat magnitude of brandy, but galore recovered it overpowering.

Two days earlier serving, the raisins request to soak successful the pome brandy overnight. The barroom needs to beryllium baked the time earlier it is served and refrigerated overnight.
