Excellent cake but VERY rich!! Enjoyed by my dessert eater!! Easily made, too. I think if I were to make it again, I would used chopped almonds, but since I had sliced, that was what I used. Another keeper, for sure!!

This cake is addictive, I love how the filling tastes like candy. The next time I make it, I'm going to use a homemade cake and frosting.
