Linzer Cake

From EatingWell: April/May 2006

Linzer Tart (or Linzer Torte) is an Austrian specialty: an almond pastry topped with raspberry jam. Here it is reinvented as an American cake: almond-rich layers divided by raspberry jam. It's even better when prepared a day in advance, giving the jam time to soak into the cake. If you like, buck tradition by using strawberry jam and garnishing with fresh strawberries.

Light and outstanding

I have my this recipe over 5 times since finding it this spring. I love to bake and sweet desserts are certainly my usual option but a Light low calorie cake like this is just perfect too when it tastes this good

Pros: Light cake, no requirement for any icing on it. Very easy to make and fool proof

Simply delicious!

This cake was a huge hit at my office today. It presents very elegant and refined. The flavor of the almond was amazing. I added a chocolate ganache on the top of mine since everything is better with chocolate!

Pros: Moist, flavorful
