Recipe Introduction


Origins Unknown


List of Ingredients




2 1/2 Cup blanched almonds
1 1/2 Cup sugar
7eggs
Dash salt
1/2 tsp gf vanilla extract
Grated peel of 1 lemon
Powdered sugar

Chocolate Coffee Sauce (Recipe filed under Desserts and Sauces)

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Butter a 10 inch spring form pan, then line it with wax paper.

Butter the wax paper.

In a food processor, combine the sugar and almonds.

Process until almonds are finely ground.

Set aside.

Separate 4 of the eggs, placing the yolks in a large bowl and reserving the whites.

Add the remaining eggs, along with the salt, vanilla, and lemon peel, to the bowl with the yolks and beat to blend well.

Gradually beat in the almond mixture.

The mixture will become very thick.

In a large bowl of a electric mixer, beat the reserved whites until they are stiff but not dry.

Gently fold them into the batter, a third at a time.

Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and bake for 45 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center of cake comes out clean.

Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack.

Remove the sides of the pan and sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar.

Serve with Chocolate Coffee Sauce.
