Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Chop 1/2 cup of the walnuts finely; set aside.
Step 2
In a bowl, cream 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in 2 eggs one at a time.
Step 3
Stir in 1.5 cups flour and 2 tsp baking powder until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts.

Pour batter into pan. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely.
