ALMOND RASPBERRY TORTE
This cake is a "cover girl"--its picture was on the cover of Better Homes & Gardens back in the 80s. It is fairly easy to make and beautiful dessert. I usually think of making it in the spring and summer, but it would be delicious anytime! I love it for entertaining because you can make it the day before--assembling at the last minute. Prep time only includes time for cooling though.

Steps:
- Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans and preheat oven to 375°.
- In large mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt.
- Set aside.
- Beat butter with electric mixer at medium speed for 30 seconds.
- Add sugar and vanilla; beat until thoroughly mixed.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
- Add dry mixture and milk alternately, beating after each addition (batter may appear curdled).
- Spread batter into prepared pans.
- Bake at 375° for 20 to 24 minutes until cake tests done.
- Cool on wire racks for 10 minutes.
- Remove cakes from pans and then cool completely on wire racks.
- When completely cool, cut layers in half horizontally (I like to wrap in plastic wrap and freeze first--as cutting the layers in half is easier with a frozen cake).
- Meanwhile, make Almond Filling: In small bowl, crumble almond paste.
- Add softened butter and beat with electric mixer on low speed.
- Add milk and beat until smooth.
- To assemble: Spread one cake layer with one-third of Almond filling, then with 2 rounded tablespoons of jam.
- Repeat layering two more times.
- Top with final layer (You will use about half of the jam).
- Cover cake tightly (I wrap with plastic wrap) and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
- No more than one hour before serving, beat whipping cream with an electric mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form.
- Spread whipped cream over cake.
- Press toasted almond slices around base of cake.
- Just before serving, drizzle jam over cake (You may need to think it just a little with water-- I use a pastry bag with a round tip so I can maintain control of the flow of jam).
- Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: Fresh raspberries and almonds will give your torte the best flavor.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it to hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the torte until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set: The torte is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center of the filling comes out clean.
- Let the torte cool completely before serving: This will help the torte to set and make it easier to slice.

This almond and raspberry torte is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
