evenly over the batter and cover them with the remaining batter. Bake
for 1 hour.

cream sweetened with the 1/4 cup of sugar and flavored with the
cinnamon and rum extract.
To serve it as a coffee cake, brush the top with the melted butter.
Sprinkle a mixture of walnuts, cinnamon and sugar on top. Then place
the cake under the broiler for about 2 minutes. Serve it warm.
