Cranberry Almond Coffee Cake image

I made this delicious coffee cake a week after receiving my Dec/Jan 2007 TOH magazine. We loved it, so much that I made another the next week and used dried cherries. I had to use the other half of the almond paste. There is also a recipe for almond paste I will post with this recipe. I never made it, not sure how it is, sounds...
