Instructions

Working time approx. 35 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 40 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 15 minutes

Drain the cherries in a sieve and grease a baking sheet. Cream the margarine or butter until light and fluffy. Gradually stir in the sugar, vanilla sugar, rum flavoring, and salt until the mixture forms a thickened batter. Then beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix the flour with the baking powder and gradually stir into the mixture. Fold in the chocolate sprinkles and almonds or stir in carefully. Pour the batter into a greased baking sheet and smooth it out. Distribute the cherries over the batter. Bake the cake at 160°C with fan for 35-45 minutes. The cake is done when a wooden skewer comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely and then decorate with powdered sugar. My baking sheet is about 30 x 40 cm.
