Recipe Text:

A rich buttery cake bakes up around apple slices place into the batter. A topping of chopped almonds and cinnamon sugar finishes the cake so it is ready to serve warm as it comes out of the oven. For a 9 inch round cake you will need:

1/2 c. butter or margarine, room temperature
1/2 c. sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 c. all-purpose flour
1 lg. apple, pared, cored & cut into 1/4 inch thick wedges
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
3/4 c. almonds, coarsely chopped

Cream together butter and the 1/2 cup sugar. Add eggs and beat until fluffy. Stir in vanilla and flour, mixing well. Spread evenly in buttered 9 inch round cake pan. Place apple wedges into cake batter to form a circular pattern. Mix together 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over cake. Sprinkle top with almonds. Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Good served with: Scoops of vanilla or cinnamon-flavored ice cream.
