How to make it
- To make the shortcake, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the egg and beat well.
- Stir in the milk, chopped almonds, and tangerine peel. Add the dry ingredients, stirring just until blended.
- Spread batter into an aluminum foil-lined and lightly greased 8-inch-round cake pan. Bake at 375o F. for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool slightly. Remove from pan and carefully remove foil. Cool on a wire rack. Cut horizontally into 2 layers.
- Meanwhile, combine the tangerine segments and liqueur; chill. To assemble, spoon tangerines and whipped topping between the cake layers and over the top. Garnish with whole almonds.
- NON-ALCOHOLIC VARIATION:
- Substitute 1/4 cup fresh squeezed tangerine juice and 1/8 teaspoon almond extract for the liqueur.
- ORANGE VARIATION:
- Substitute 3 small oranges, peeled and segmented, for the tangerines. Substitute fresh grated peel of 1/2 fresh orange for the tangerine peel.
