Sweet Maple Nut Cake

Friday, November 12, 2010

When we lived in Vermont, I had real maple syrup for the very first time. Well, that’s not entirely true… I’d had it before but it had been low quality and I was convinced I didn’t like it. Then we moved to The Maple Syrup Capital of the World: Vermont. The whole maple sugar process ...
