LINGONBERRY-CARDAMOM CAKE



Lingonberry-Cardamom Cake image

Our family is Scandinavian, and we love using almonds, cardamom and lingonberries in desserts, as in this cardamom cake. If lingonberry jam is difficult to obtain, you can use pureed cranberry sauce with a little lemon juice to get a similar sweet-tart flavor. Whipped cream is a perfect topping for this Scandinavian-inspired dessert. -Barbara Kvale, Cologne, Minnesota

This is out of Avons International Cookbook and posted for RZ's World Tour 2006 - Sweden. Lingonberries, tiny and tart, are one of the most beloved of all Swedish foods. Look for the canned sauce in the gourmet sections of department and grocery stores. ***Again*** for those who don't know me, I don't include chilling time in prepartion or cooking times, as this is passive time and I am off doing something else.
