 baking soda; mix well.  Pour into a greased and floured 15x10x1-inch
 baking pan.  Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick

 the butter, cream, cocoa and cinnamon in a saucepan.  Cook and stir over
 medium heat until butter is melted and mixture is heated through. 
 Remove from the heat; beat in sugar and vanilla until smooth.  Stir in
 walnuts.  Carefully spread over hot cake.  Cool completely.
