Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F), grease your cake pan with butter, then set it aside.

Sift and combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon powder, and ground cloves in a medium-sized bowl.

Step 4

In a larger mixing bowl, beat the sugar and softened butter.

Step 5

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing in between additions.

Step 6

Add the dry ingredients from earlier (flour, spices, etc.) and combine everything.

Step 7

Fold the chopped walnuts and grated chocolate into the walnut cake batter.

Step 8

Pour batter into the greased cake pan, then use an angled spatula to even the top.

Step 9

Place the karidopita pan in the lower part of the oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.

Combine all the syrup ingredients in a small saucepan.

Step 11

Mix until the sugar dissolves, place the saucepan on medium heat and bring to a boil.

Keep boiling for 5 minutes (DO NOT STIR!), remove from the heat, and set aside to cool.
