I don't know what makes this Jewish, except maybe the sour cream. Aunt Pat brought this home from work one day about 50 years ago, and it has been a family favorite ever since.
Here's the recipe:

add to creamed mixture; beat just until combined
Stir in 1/2 pint sour cream
1 tsp vanilla

Mix 1 cup chopped walnuts
1 Tbls brown sugar
1 Tabls cinnamon
1/4 cup white sugar

Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan; put half of batter into pan; sprinkle half of nut mixture on batter; cover with remaining mixture; sprinkle remaining nut mixtureon top.
