ALMOND BUTTER CAKE
A small simple cake with a slight almond toasted almond taste. Really out of this world. You can substitute almond extract for 3/4 of the vanilla if a stronger almond taste is desired. This cake employs an unusual mixing method that ensures good results.

Steps:
- Combine eggs, extract and 1/4 of the sour cream in a small bowl.
- Cut butter into chunks.
- Put remaining sour cream in another small bowl.
- allow all ingredients to come to room temperature while you prepare a 9" springform pan, line bottom with parchment, grease and flour.
- You can use a 9x2" round pan as well, but it will be a bit more difficult to unmold the cake.
- Toast almonds in a 350 degree F oven for 7-8 minutes, cool then grind fine, (I use a bag and rolling pin)-- if using dry measuring cups be sure to grind first then measure.
- Sift all dry ingredients into the workbowl of your mixer and mix on low speed for 30 seconds to combine.
- Add softened butter and sour cream, mix on low to combine, scrape bowl, beat on medium (med-high for a hand mixer) for 90 seconds.
- This will aerate the cake and give it structure.
- Scrape the bowl down and in two additions add the egg mixture, beating for 20 seconds after each addition.
- Scrape the bowl one last time and give it a couple pulses.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 40-50 minutes, (rotate pan 180 degrees after 25 mins) a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean and the top of the cake will spring back when lightly pressed.
- Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes, remove sides of pan and allow to cool to room temperature, about 2 hours.
- Cake can be sliced and filled with chocolate ganache and/or frosted with any butter cream.
- It's delicous slightly warm with just a dusting of powdered sugar too!

LEMON-ALMOND BUTTER CAKE
Steps:
- Combine the lemon zest and juice in a nonreactive saucepan with the sugar and eggs and beat well. Add the butter and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens into curd. Be sure to keep scraping the bottom of the pan during the few minutes this takes you; you don't want the eggs to scramble before the curd forms. If you're the nervous type, make the curd in a heatproof bowl over a pot of boiling water (the bowl shouldn't touch the water). The curd will take just a little longer to thicken, about 5 minutes. Strain the crud into a bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap against the surface so a skin doesn't form. Refrigerate until cool, at least 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a springform pan with 1 tablespoon of the butter and dust it with 1 tablespoon of the flour.
- Cream the remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a large bowl with 1 cup of the sugar until light and fluffy. Sift the remaining 1 cup flour, the baking powder, and salt together and stir into the creamed butter.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until they start to foam. Do not overbeat, or the cake will be tough. Add the eggs and ground almonds to the flour and butter mixture, mixing well.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Drop 8 individual tablespoons of lemon curd evenly around the outside of the cake, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Try to place the curd so there's an even amount of cake batter between each dollop of curd. Drop 3 tablespoons curd in the center. Refrigerate any remaining curd for another use (hint: breakfast toast). Sprinkle the top of the cake with sliced almonds and 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar, according to taste.
- Bake until the cake is toasty brown on top and a toothpick or knife inserted into the cake comes out clean (be sure not to insert it near the curd), about 40 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes, then remove the sides of the pan and let cool completely on a rack.
- If serving the cake with whipped cream, add the almond liqueur to the heavy cream and beat until the cream is stiff. Sift a thin, even layer of confectioners' sugar over the top of the cake. Present the cake at the table and offer the almond whipped cream on the side.
M. CUNNINGHAM'S ALMOND BUTTER CAKE
"Almond butter cake is not to be taken lightly just because you can stir it together in about 3 minutes, pop it in the oven to bake, and serve it within an hour. It's truly a unique cake, because it doesn't rise very high and it comes out moist, sticky, and chewy, like a cookie. It also keeps twice as long as any conventional cake." From Learning to Cook with Marion Cunningham. My MIL served these recently, cut up like bar cookies, which is just what I thought they were. I was pleasantly surprised to receive this recipe as the source.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.

- Spread it evenly in the pan.
- Sprinkle the tablespoon of sugar, then the sliced almonds, over the top of the batter.
- Put the pan on the middle rack of the oven and set the timer for 35 minutes.
- When it rings, check to see if the cake is done.
- It should be light brown on top, and when you insert a toothpick in the center, it should have a few sticky crumbs adhering to it.
- If the cake is not browned enough and the toothpick comes out too wet, put the cake back in the oven and check it again in another 10 minutes.
- When the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool on a heatproof counter for at least 30 minutes.
- Cut the cake into small wedges and serve with fresh fruit.
- This cake will stay fresh for about a week and will freeze indefinitely.
- Wrap it tightly in foil, or in a plastic bag you can seal with a zip or tie.
- Storing nuts: Whenever you have leftover nuts, freeze them in a plastic bag closed tightly.
- They will keep indefinitely in the freezer.
