Lisa’s Cranberry Cake

3 Eggs

2 cups Sugar

¾ Butter of Margarine, softened

1 tsp. Almond Extract

2 cups All Purpose Flour

2 ½ cups Fresh or Frozen Cranberries

2/3 cup chopped Pecans or Slivered Almonds

     This is the most delectable Cranberry Cake you will ever taste!  It is a yummy, moist treat that everyone loves!  In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs and the sugar.  Beat for about 5; yes, FIVE minutes until they are slightly thickened and light in color.  Know that it is worth it!  Add butter and almond extract and beat an additional 2 minutes.  The dough is yummy at this point.  Don’t think of botulism, taste it!  Gently add the mixture to the flour in the Thatsa Bowl with the new Double Sided Spatula ~ just until combined!  Do NOT over-mix the air you just fluffed into this light cake!  Fold in the cranberries and the nuts just until combined.  Spread in a greased round Baking Stone.   Leave lots of dough on the generous Double Sided Spatula so you can taste the perfect combination of tart cranberries and delicate cake dough!  Go to heaven.  Bake in a 350 oven for 35 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool.  Hide from your family.  This is YOUR special treat!  You deserve it!  Serve with flavored coffee, and top with fresh whipped cream if you desire.  Snuggle up with a good book in front of the fireplace and enjoy the luscious taste of winter!  It stores wonderfully in the Pie Taker!  You will love it!
