This recipe? While not what I was seeking, is something well worth trying, if you are on the same path. My friend Marcia told me she had an almond coffee cake recipe that was awesome. Since I feel I'm becoming a connoisseur of these things, I felt it was time to give it a try. Marcia is a much better Dutch girl than me. She makes banket (and likes it), she keeps a clean car, and even goes to the local Dutch Fest. She also has a great almond coffee cake recipe. Get this - even Bronwyn ate a piece on a Sunday morning. I know right? Amazing. That never happens!
I will continue on the hunt and I think it's leading me in the direction of ground almonds. Interesting right? Maybe I need to get a part time job at the bakery and then I will know their secrets!
