Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch cake pan with baking spray of butter.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until soft and creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt and continue beating until well combined. Mix in the cream. Stir in the lemon zest, walnuts, and chocolate, and spread in the baking pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
