Raspberry & Amaretti Crunch Cake

We had visitors this weekend and I made this cake for dessert. If you like amaretti biscuits and that lovely almondy/marzipanny flavour then you will love this cake.  The fresh rasps add a nice fresh and slightly sharp contrast.  You definitely have to serve it will chilled single cream.  Everyone enjoyed it and it was really easy to make, although I did find it took a little longer to cook than the recommended time in the recipe.    The recipe comes from my favourite recipe website, BBC Good Food, you can find the recipe HERE

Looks absolutely delicious. My favourite cakes are ones with different textures like this and the crunch part sounds just amazing. Pretty to look at, too. What lucky visitors!

Looks fabulous - but with those ingredients (and your amazing skills, of course) how could it not?
