Subject: Almond Puff cake
Years ago I had a recipe for an almond pastry from one of them
recipe cards that you get every month.
All I can remember is it was cooked on the stove with eggs as a
main ingredient. Then the recipie was divided in half and you
made two separate pastry cakes from it.
Then another almond flavored topping was put on top and baked.
It was very, very flaky and melted in your mouth. It wasn't with
almond paste but just almond extract.
I have been looking for this recipe for years with no luck. If you
can help me find this that would be wonderful.
Thank you.
Hi Jeanette,
Could one of the recipes below be it?

the icing. I hope this helps...
