In another bowl, combine eggs and vegetable oil, then mix with a hand mixer until well combined.

Add the dry ingredients in thirds to the wet mixture, mixing until well combined.

Fold in chopped walnuts into the batter.

Spray a bundt pan with Baker's Joy and pour in the batter.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake until a wooden skewer comes out clean, about 38 minutes.

Once baked, remove the cake from the pan to cool faster.

To make the cream cheese glaze, whisk together cream cheese, sifted powdered sugar, and heavy cream until well combined, adjusting thickness as desired.

Pour the glaze over the cooled cake and sprinkle with walnuts on top.

Transfer the cake to a serving platter and cut into pieces to serve.
