    | 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F; butter and flour a 13 x 9 baking pan. | 2. In a bowl combine the walnuts, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, breadcrumbs, flour, and baking powder. | 3. In a small glass, dilute the soda with the cognac. | 4. Beat the egg whites in a bowl until stiff peaks form. | 5. In a large bowl mixing bowl, cream the butter with the sugar and then add the eggs yolks; mix in the soda with the cognac, and add the milk and the walnut mixture, beating until well combined; fold in 1/4 of the beaten egg whites to lighten batter, then carefully fold in the rest; it is ok if a few white streaks show in the batter; spread into the prepared baking pan. | 6. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the cake tests done. Cool cake completely (it is very important that the cake is cooled before pouring on hot syrup because otherwise it will turn mushy). | 7. For the syrup: Mix all the ingredients together in a medium saucepan; bring it to a boil and boil for 5-7 minutes; remove cinnamon stick and pour hot syrup over cooled cake; let the cake cool completely (from the addition of the hot syrup) before serving. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
