Cherry pie filling sandwiched between delicate, buttery cake topped with crumbs and sliced almonds. Sure to impress family or friends. Got this out of a calendar that feature products such as Robin Hood and Carnation.

- Use your imagination for different flavor combinations. Use different nuts too. Apple goes so well with pecan also. Have fun. Be creative. I seldom follow a recipe exactly.
