WARM ALMOND-CHERRY CAKE
Frozen cherries become juicy and intense when baked into this tender cake. Your freezer aisle is the best place to savor summer fruit any time of year. Frozen blueberries, blackberries, raspberries -- or a combination thereof -- would work well in this recipe if you can't find cherries.
