This would have to be the nicest Plum Cake I have ever tasted! The almonds and almond extract in the filling is just perfect with the plums! The preparation time does not include the time it takes to make the pastry.

The kuchen was delicious, but it was a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more butter or milk to the batter next time.
