Cranberry sauce gives this moist cake its pretty swirled look. Serve slices for dessert after dinner or as coffee cake for bunch. Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter or 3/4 cup margarine, softened |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups sour cream |
1 (14 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce |
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
4 1/2 teaspoons water |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in extract. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with sour cream, beating well after each addition.
2. Spoon a third of the batter into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Top with a third of the cranberry sauce. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle with pecans.
3. Bake at 350° for 65-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Combine icing ingredients until smooth; drizzle over warm cake. Yield: 12-16 servings.
