Ingredients

1 cup almond paste
1 ¼ cups sugar
1 ¼ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
6 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Chukar® Sour Cherry Sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
Combine the almond paste and sugar in a food processor and pulse until well blended. Add the butter and vanilla, pulse until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, and pulse until just combined. Do not overmix.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the food processor and pulse until blended.
Transfer batter to the prepared springform pan. Place the pan on a baking sheet and bake for 60-90 minutes or until the cake is golden on top and has started to pull away from the sides of the pan.
Place on a rack to cool to room temperature before removing from pan and slicing.
When ready to serve, warm Chukar® Sour Cherry Sauce. Spoon a dollop of sauce onto each slice and serve.
