DELICIOUS CRANBERRY CAKE



Delicious Cranberry Cake image

We eat this colorful, moist cake at our women's church meetings. It's really easy to make and very tasty. The almond flavoring really blends well with the cranberries. I buy bags of cranberries when there are sales during the holidays, then freeze some so I can enjoy this treat all year round. For those with hard nut allergies, leave them out, or try sunflower seeds or peanuts. Vanilla extract can be substituted for almond extract.

Cranberries freeze admirably, just as you purchase them in plastic bags. With several extra bags of the bright scarlet berries obtained now when they are available and tucked into the freezer you will have the raw materials for a change of pace condiment to serve with roasted poultry or meats at other times of the year, or for quick breads or pies.
