European Almond Butter Cake

Oh boy do I have a recipe for the almond lover in your life. I’m telling you what, this super easy cake is the bomb, overflowing with strong almond flavor. I brought it to a cookout recently and one of my neighbors kept calling it a marzipan cake and told his wife she had to get the recipe, so there you go. Bake this cake in a nonstick foil-lined cast iron skillet. Recipe adapted from Trisha Yearwood.
