Cherry Almond Snack Cake with Marzipan Crumb Recipe

A “snack cake is, as you might expect, a cake for snacking. It consists of one layer and is, more often than not, baked in an 8×8-inch square pan. Snack cakes are perfect after school cakes, or teatime cakes. They are wonderful in the morning — for breakfast or brunch — or when you need a pick-me-up with a cup of coffee around 11 a.m. And I’m partial to a slice in the evening when I am staying up way too late binge watching Netflix (buy maybe that's just me).

Snack cakes are also hassle-free cakes — cakes that call for ingredients already in your pantry (or for those found easily at the nearest store) and that come together quickly in your kitchen. And this particular snack cake is a “one-bowl” cake, which means you only need to dirty one mixing bowl (in this case the bowl of your stand mixer) to make it. I love one-bowl baking, almost as much as I love snack cakes, as I am a sucker for recipes with streamlined instructions that do not require that you pull out every bowl, plate and ramekin when assembling. One-bowl cakes are always easy to make and when you turn back to your kitchen sink after placing said cake in the oven there is just one dirty bowl waiting for you.
