Crilley’s Almond Cake

February 7, 2015 by Chris

This recipe comes to us via our good friend and garden partner’s family favorites. Simply delicious and easy to make… Crilley’s Almond Cake is best served hot resting on a smear of melted Bon Maman Cherry Preserves. Leftovers turn to a cookie for next day snacking…  YUM!!!
