Instructions: This isnt from any particular brand, but heres a sherry cake Ive always had good luck with. I usually use a yellow cake mix, and pecans or walnuts, but it ought to be good with almonds too. The recipe I adapted it from used 2 Tbl. of poppyseeds instead of the nuts. I hope you like it.

Cake: Beat all ingredients together for 3 min. Pour into a greased bundt pan or 10 inch tube pan and bake at 350 F. for 45 minutes. Allow to rest for 10-15 min., then turn out of pan and cool.

Icing: Combine ingredients in a double boiler, and stir over hot water for 10-15 minutes. Thin with water or thicken with confectioners sugar as needed. Drizzle icing over the cake, and sprinkle with sliced almonds before it hardens.

Alternate icing: Heat 6-8 Tbl. confectioners sugar with enough sherry to make a glaze.
