CAKE
1 1/4 c cake flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 c almond paste
1 c butter, unsalted softened
3/4 c sugar
3 eggs room temperature
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 c rhubarb, sliced 1/2 inch
ALMOND CRUNCH
1 egg white
2/3 c almonds, sliced
1 Tbsp sugar
dash salt
GLAZE
6 Tbsp powdered sugar
2 1/2 - 3 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp almond extract

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 9x2-inch round baking pan with cooking spray. Line bottom with parchment paper; spray paper. Dust with flour, tapping out excess. Whisk flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in medium bowl.
  • 2. Beat almond paste in large bowl at medium to medium-high speed 1 to 2 minutes or until crumbled. Add butter and 3/4 cup sugar; beat at medium speed 2 minutes or until smooth and creamy.
  • 3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. At low speed, beat in flour mixture just until combined. Increase speed to medium; beat 30 seconds. Spread in pan; top with rhubarb.
  • 4. Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes; invert cake onto wire rack. Remove parchment paper; turn cake top-side up. Cool completely.
  • 5. Meanwhile, coat baking sheet with cooking spray. Whisk egg white in small bowl until frothy. Stir in remaining almond crunch ingredients; spread on baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown, stirring once. Cool completely on wire rack.
  • 6. Whisk powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons cream and 1/4 teaspoon almond extract in small bowl until smooth, adding additional cream 1/2 teaspoon at a time to desired glaze consistency.
  • 7. Drizzle glaze over top and sides of cake; top with almond crunch. Let stand until glaze is set.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
