Dates with Honey & Walnut Cake

1 cup Dates, finely chopped
½ cup Honey
Take the dates in a cup and add honey. Soak for about 30 minutes to soften and sweeten the dates.

2 eggs, at room temperature
Break eggs into a cup and beat with a spoon. **Can remove yellows. Can replace the eggs with a mashed, ripe banana.

2 cups All Purpose Flour
½ cup Brown Sugar or White Cane Sugar
½ tsp each - Baking Powder, Baking Soda and Cardamom Powder
¼ cup Butter, at room temperature
½ cup Milk
1 cup Walnuts, finely chopped

Sift and add flour to a big vessel. Stir in sugar, baking powder, soda and cardamom powder. Mix.
Add butter, milk and eggs. Also walnuts and dates along with the honey they are soaked in. Combine all thoroughly.
If the batter is too tight, adjust the consistency by adding little bit more milk. Pour the mixture into a cake pan. Level it evenly.
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Place the cake pan in the bottom rack for the first 15 minutes, and then move the pan to the top rack. Bake for about a total 30 minutes, until the top of the cake turns to light honey color and when a knife inserted into the cake comes out clean.
