Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
  2. Prepare cake batter according to package directions, using the specified amount of egg and water.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. While cake cools, prepare the filling: In a large bowl, whip heavy cream, sifted sugar, and almond extract until stiff peaks form.
  6. Once cooled, carefully slice the cake horizontally into three even layers using a long serrated knife.
  7. Place the bottom layer on a serving plate. Spread with 1/3 cup raspberry jam, then top with 2/3 cup of the whipped cream mixture.
  8. Repeat the layering process with the middle cake layer, adding another 1/3 cup jam and 2/3 cup cream.
  9. Top with the final cake layer. Spread remaining whipped cream over the top and sides if desired.
  10. Refrigerate the assembled torte for at least 2 hours to set before slicing and serving.
