Kek ini merupakan salah satu favourite saya. Kek korma bersama walnut disirami dengan butterscotch. Very rich lebih-lebih lagi bila dihidang bersama fresh krim. Boleh disimpan di dalam fridge dan microwavekan bila hendak dihidangkan. mengikut citarasa masing-masing boleh guna walnut, gajus mahupun pecan. Unik rasanya lembap dan sedap.
