MONDLUKAKA - ICELANDIC ALMOND CAKE DESSERT
Most Icelanders have an enormous "sweet tooth" and an Icelandic afternoon tradition called "Kaffi og Kaka" (coffee and cake) is 1 way they indulge their craving. At first I expected something simple, but I quickly realized K&K is the Icelandic version of an American tradition ... "pig out till you seriously hurt yourself!" For some, it's daily and casual. For others, it's less frequent ... but a very formal, put out your best china, fill a table w/all manner of taste sensations and eat for 2 hrs while pouring coffee so strong it would make you gasp w/terror. A favorite treat for such occasions is Iceland Almond Cake. Again my source is my "Classic Scandanavian Cooking" cookbook by Nika Hazelton. Part of the intro says "This cake is good & easy, & it will keep well if wrapped in aluminum foil - without the filling & topping, of course."

SCANDINAVIAN ALMOND CAKE
I got this recipe when I bought a cool looking pan. It's meant to go in there, but would work just as well in a loaf pan. This cake is very almondy and moist!

Steps:
- Finely grind the almonds in a food processor.
- With an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks with the sugar to a smooth pale cream. Beat in the zests and almond extract. Add the ground almonds and mix very well.
- With clean beaters, beat the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold them into the egg and almond mixture (the mixture is thick, so that you will need to turn it over quite a bit into the egg whites).
- Grease an 11-inch springform pan, preferably nonstick, with butter and dust it with flour. Pour in the cake batter, and bake into a preheated 350°F for 40 minutes, or until it feels firm to the touch. Let cool before turning out.
- Just before serving, dust the top of the cake with confectioners' sugar. Or, if you like, cut a St. James cross out of paper. Place it in the middle of the cake, and dust the cake with confectioners' sugar, then remove the paper.
MAJORCAN ALMOND CAKE
This naturally gluten-free cake is made with ground almonds, which are found aplenty on the Spanish island of Majorca (Mallorca). The cake should be beautiful and moist.

- Beat eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add sugar and beat in well. Stir in almonds and continue beating until batter is well combined. Add lemon juice, cinnamon, and rum, one after the other, beating until well combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
