Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut a piece of wax or parchment paper to fit the bottom of an 8-inch round cake pan. Coat pan with nonstick spray, place prepared paper round in bottom of pan, and spray paper. Sprinkle evenly with 1/4 cup almonds.
- In a food processor, process remaining 1 1/2 cups almonds with 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar until finely ground; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites with salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 2 tablespoons of confectioners' sugar and beat until stiff glossy peaks form. Beat in almond extract. In three additions, gently fold in ground almond mixture.
- Evenly spread batter into prepared pan, tapping pan on counter to expel large air bubbles. Bake until golden brown and firm in center, 40 to 45 minutes; cool completely in pan. Invert onto serving plate, and remove wax or parchment paper.

ALMOND BERRY TORTE
Steps:
- Torte: Heat oven to 350 F. Generously butter a 10 inch round torte baking pan (use regular 9 inch cake pan if you don't have a torte pan) and line bottom with parchment paper (the cake is a touch sticky; this facilitate removing it from the pan). Butter the paper and dust with flour. In a large mixing bowl cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add grated almond paste and mix for about two more minutes, stopping to scrape bottom and sides of bowl. The mixture should be light and airy. Add eggs, one at a time, and vanilla and scrape bowl to blend batter, which should be fluffy. Sift flour into bowl and using a spatula fold flour carefully into batter. Do not overmix. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in middle of oven for 25-35 minutes or until cake is a nice golden brown. Prick it in the middle with a baking pin or a toothpick; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Topping: If using fresh raspberries, simply rinse and dry them and arrange them on the cake. If you wish, you can add shine and sweetness to the berries by heating raspberry jelly in a small pan or microwave and brush berries with the preserves. If using frozen berries, thaw them, then drain, preserving the liquid. Pour the liquid in a medium saucepan adding the sugar. Bring to a boil. Mix cornstarch with a little cold water (there should be no lumps), remove pan from heat and immediately whisk in cornstarch blend. Return the pan to the heat, stirring. The mixture should thicken immediately. Remove from heat and mix in berries. When berry mixture is cool, spread it on top of torte. The torte is delicious with unsweetened whipped cream. Vanilla ice cream is very good if you are serving the cake fresh out of the oven.
ALMOND AND RASPBERRY TORTE
Steps:
- Butter the cake pan, line the base with waxed or parchment paper, and then butter and flour it. Wash the raspberries, dry them on paper towels, and then snip off the blossom ends and stems. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Cream the butter until smooth in an electric mixer. Add the sugar and continue to beat until soft and light, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the egg until well mixed, about 1 minute. Stir in the ground almonds by hand, followed by the flour mixture. Expect the batter to be quite stiff. Spread half the batter in the cake pan. Sprinkle the fruit on top and dot with the remaining batter so the fruit is almost covered. Bake until the torte starts to shrink from the sides of the pan and the top is firm when lightly pressed with a fingertip, 45 to 55 minutes. The top will be rustic looking, like a crumble. Let the torte cool for 10 to 15 minutes in the pan, then loosen the sides and slide the torte onto a rack to cool completely. Sprinkle it with confectioners' sugar and serve it warm or at room temperature.

ALMOND RASPBERRY TORTE
This cake is a "cover girl"--its picture was on the cover of Better Homes & Gardens back in the 80s. It is fairly easy to make and beautiful dessert. I usually think of making it in the spring and summer, but it would be delicious anytime! I love it for entertaining because you can make it the day before--assembling at the last minute. Prep time only includes time for cooling though.

- Cool on wire racks for 10 minutes.
- Remove cakes from pans and then cool completely on wire racks.
- When completely cool, cut layers in half horizontally (I like to wrap in plastic wrap and freeze first--as cutting the layers in half is easier with a frozen cake).
- Meanwhile, make Almond Filling: In small bowl, crumble almond paste.
- Add softened butter and beat with electric mixer on low speed.
- Add milk and beat until smooth.
- To assemble: Spread one cake layer with one-third of Almond filling, then with 2 rounded tablespoons of jam.
- Repeat layering two more times.
- Top with final layer (You will use about half of the jam).
- Cover cake tightly (I wrap with plastic wrap) and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
- No more than one hour before serving, beat whipping cream with an electric mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form.
- Spread whipped cream over cake.
- Press toasted almond slices around base of cake.
- Just before serving, drizzle jam over cake (You may need to think it just a little with water-- I use a pastry bag with a round tip so I can maintain control of the flow of jam).
- Serve immediately.

JAPONAISE (ALMOND MERINGUE) TORTE
Japonaise? No, not Japanese mayonnaise lol. This is a wonderful cake made of discs of almond meringue sandwiched together with a coffee-flavored butter cream. It was popular when I was a child growing up in Australia and, happily, I recently discovered this recipe which originally appeared in a Vogue Entertaining magazine. It is not at all difficult, and is best made a day in advance and refrigerated until just before serving. Very rich!!

ALMOND BERRY MUFFINS
I made these moist muffins to take to the office, and they were a hit. Sugared almonds give them a crunchy topping. When strawberries aren't in season, I use individual frozen cut strawberries directly from the freezer.

ALMOND BERRY LAYER CAKE
Behold! An ode to summer in cake form. In this towering dessert from the food stylist and cookbook author Susan Spungen, crumbly yet tender layers of almond cake are layered with mounds of fresh berries and a rich filling of mascarpone and crème fraîche. It's not difficult to make, but it does take some time, so save this for a lazy Saturday when you've just scored piles of perfect berries from the farmers' market.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush 3 (8-inch) round baking pans with butter and line the bottoms with parchment paper cut to fit. Brush with butter again and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Place 1 tablespoon flour, the almonds, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely ground.
- Fill a pot (large enough to set the bowl of an electric mixer in it without the bowl touching the bottom) with 1 inch water and bring to a simmer over low heat.
- Place the eggs, egg whites and sugar in the bowl and gently whisk to incorporate. Place the bowl over the pot of steaming water and whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes.
- Return bowl to the mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until pale yellow, thick and fluffy, about 7 minutes. Add vanilla and gently stir to combine.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold almond mixture into batter. Divide batter evenly among pans and bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. The centers will rise and fall during baking. Transfer pans to a wire rack and let cool 5 minutes. Run a butter knife around the edges of the cakes and turn them out onto a flat plate or cardboard round. Peel off parchment and invert onto another plate or round. Cakes should be right-side up. Cool completely and wrap in plastic wrap if not using immediately.
- In a chilled metal bowl, whip the mascarpone and creme fraiche, either by hand or with an electric mixer, until it holds its shape and is not at all runny. Add the lemon zest, confectioners' sugar and liqueur, if using, and beat to combine well. Add up to 2 tablespoons more sugar, to taste, if you choose.
- Place one of the cakes on a serving plate. Top with 1/3 of the mascarpone filling and 1/3 of the berries. Repeat with the remaining 2 layers, leaving the prettiest berries for the top. If not serving right away, chill until ready to serve. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve.
