2 1/2 c Bisquick 1/2 c -Water
1/2 ts Cinnamon 1 2″ strip orange peel

2 1/2 c Chopped walnuts 1/4 c Walnuts
1 1/2 c Milk 1 ts Ground cinnamon

In a large mixing bowl place the eggs, Bisquick, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon,

them for 5 minutes.

Add the honey and bring the mixture to a boil. Remove the pan from the

syrup cool. Remove the orange and lemon peels, and the cinnamon stick.

Spread the syrup over the cake. Sprinkle on the 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts
and the ground cinnamon.
