LINGONBERRY-CARDAMOM CAKE



Lingonberry-Cardamom Cake image

Our family is Scandinavian, and we love using almonds, cardamom and lingonberries in desserts, as in this cardamom cake. If lingonberry jam is difficult to obtain, you can use pureed cranberry sauce with a little lemon juice to get a similar sweet-tart flavor. Whipped cream is a perfect topping for this Scandinavian-inspired dessert. -Barbara Kvale, Cologne, Minnesota

  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
