Directions:
- Preheat oven to 160*C (325*F) Grease a deep 8 inch round cake tin and line the base and sides with wax paper.
- Cream the butter and sugar together, 2 to 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Pour in eggs a little at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Mix in the flour one third at a time.
- Fold inthe cherries, ground almonds and almond extract until evenly mixed.
- Spoon half into the tin.
- Roll out the marzipan to a 7 1/2 inch circle.
- Lay this on top of the cake mixture in the tin, then cover with the rest of the mixture.
- Level with the back of a spoon and scatter the almonds on top.
- Bake in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, covering with foil after 1 hour if it shows signs of burning.
- The cake is done when it shrinks away from the side of the tin and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
- Leave to cool in the tin for 20 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
- Dust with icing sugar before serving.
