Apple Spice Cake with Walnut Praline Topping.

What?s girl to do?

Let me be more specific.  What?s a baking girl to do?  Well, first off, get out of the oven.

Alright.  I?ll be serious.  So seriously, let?s talk buttermilk.  It?s tangy, thick and frothy.  It makes the best salad dressing, and the absolute premier biscuits.  But the thing about buttermilk, it comes in big quarts.  Or at least, I bought a big quart.  Even after the week of salad followed by the week of biscuits?which really, was a biscuit filled weekend, goat cheese filled anything doesn?t last a week?there was still buttermilk.  So back to the top.  What?s a girl to do?

As it turns out, the answer is easy, if not utterly predictable.  Ask the question, receive cake.  Apple Spice Cake with Walnut Praline Topping.  If the spicy, moist apple cake doesn?t convince you, just take a moment, and think.  Think about a warm, sticky toffee flavored nut topping, dripping over the top and sides of a loaf of cake.  Imagine a slice of said cake, and a little extra walnut praline topping.

Now ask, what are you going to do?
