Description

This curd cherry cake is an absolute classic and tastes simply wonderful! I especially like to make it in the summer when the cherries come fresh from the market. The combination of the fluffy dough, the creamy curd filling and the juicy cherries is simply unbeatable. A shot of almond liqueur rounds the whole thing off perfectly. The cake can be prepared well and is ideal for birthdays or other festive occasions. It is always well received by me and is eaten up in no time! A real eye-catcher on every coffee table.
