Cherry Almond Cake

I can't believe it's been nearly a month since I last posted!  The summer has been pretty brutal for baking since my apartment gets so warm.  It doesn't mean I haven't bake, I just try to avoid it if I can.  I'm totally counting down to fall!

I made this cake for my grandma's birthday last month. I find that the key with grandma's or older people in general is that they prefer simple flavors.  I went with a cherry almond cake that resembled more of a coffee cake in texture.  It was light, crunchy, sweet and tart which makes it a great for the summer.  Check out the pic below courtesy of my cellphone!
