Number Of Ingredients 13

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, room temperature, plus more for pans
1 1/2 cups unblanched, whole almonds
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 large eggs
1/4 cup orange-flavored liqueur
1 cup seedless raspberry jam
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar, for sprinkling
Marzipan holly leaf and berries, for decoration (optional)
Vegetable oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Butter two 8-inch round cake pans. Line with parchment; butter parchment. In a food processor, process almonds and sugar to a powder. Sift together cornstarch, flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In an electric mixer, beat 2 eggs with almond-sugar mixture on low speed until blended, about 1 minute. Add remaining eggs, one at a time, beating on high speed for 3 to 4 minutes and scraping down sides of bowl after each egg. Beat in liqueur.
  • Sprinkle cornstarch mixture over egg mixture; fold in. Fold in melted butter. Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake 15 minutes, rotate pans between oven shelves, and bake until cake tester inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean, 15 to 17 more minutes. Line two wire racks with parchment; spray paper with cooking spray. Turn cakes out of pans to cool on parchment-lined cooling racks for 45 minutes.
  • In a small saucepan, warm jam over low heat, stirring occasionally. Spread warm jam on one cake layer; top with second layer, and dust with confectioners' sugar. Decorate with marzipan if desired.

I made a few changes to the recipe, and my torte turned out great! I used a different type of almond flour and I added a little bit of vanilla extract to the filling. I also baked it for a few minutes less than the recipe said.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my torte didn't turn out as good as I expected. The crust was dry and the filling was too runny.
