ALMOND CUSTARD CAKE
This white cake pairs well with all sorts of frostings and fillings, but the chocolate frosting in this recipe is one of my favorites. Pressed for time? Add 1/2 tsp. of almond extract to a white cake mix instead. -Diane Shipley, Mentor, Ohio

- Make cake:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan. Line bottom with parchment; butter parchment. Blend almond paste and sugar in processor until mixture resembles fine meal, about 1 minute. Add butter and vanilla and blend well, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl.

CHERRY-GLAZED SPONGE CAKE
This is a great cake for sharing. You could probably make this with other types of pie filling but the cherries look so pretty poking through the cake! Another great Sunset recipe.

- Make sure the butter is soft, remove it from the refrigerator a few hours before baking. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line two 20 cm/ 8 inches cake tins (I use springforms) with baking paper.
- Place the sponge ingredients in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the two tins and level nicely. Immediately place the tins in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden. Let stand in the tins for 5 minutes, remove and let cool completely on wire racks.
- Keep 3-5 cherries for decorating the cake. Pit and chop the fresh cherries. If using frozen and defrosted cherries or canned cherries, chop them, place them on kitchen paper and pat dry with more kitchen paper. Set aside.
- Toast the flaked almonds in a pan until golden. Shake the pan often and transfer the almonds to a large plate as soon as they are roasted. Let cool completely. Whip the cream adding 1 tablespoon sugar and the vanilla extract when you beat it.
