This cake is more like a cookie-cake- dense, but soft and very flavorful. If you like almond-flavor, this is for you. This is the perfect elegant dessert for a special occasion. It’s a little bit fancy, and it’s so beautiful to serve to guests.
The cake is heavy on the almond flavor, so if you’re a lover of almonds then you’re really going to love this cake! Contrary to the title, there is no actual “almond butter” in the recipe. It’s an almond- flavored butter cake. Almond paste gives it such great flavor, and then there is a nice layer of sliced almonds baked on top.
I once served this cake at one of my neighborhood gourmet dinner parties, and everyone loved it. You can take a peek at that dinner party menu here: Sicilian Dinner Party.
