Directions:

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 or 10" tube pan.

sugar, nuts, and flour. Stir in the butter and zest. 3 To prepare
cake, in a large bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed,
beat together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time,
beating well after each addition. Beat in zest and vanilla.
