Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine honey, sugar, and butter until creamy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until combined.

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each into a thin layer.

Bake each layer for 5-7 minutes until golden brown, then cool completely.

In another bowl, mix sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Once the layers are cool, spread a layer of the cream mixture between each cake layer.

Crush walnuts and sprinkle them between layers and on top of the cake.

Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours to allow flavors to meld.

Before serving, dust the top with additional powdered sugar.
