Hello - I am back! Have you missed me? After two weeks of moving house I have returned with this simple cake recipe with frozen strawberries and almonds. My new house still looks like a car boot sale. It will be a few months before the new kitchen is fitted but thankfully the old owner left an eight hob range cooker behind.
I made this cake just before we moved. My kitchen cupboards only contained ingredients that needed to be used up and I found this pack of frozen strawberries in the freezer. Of course I already posted a couple recipes with frozen strawberries such as the strawberry vodka recipe or my skinny strawberry vodka ice-cream, but now I was in need of some cake.
If you want you can substitute the strawberries with any other frozen fruit such as raspberries or blackberries. It has a lovely moist texture which is contrasted nicely with the coarse texture of the roasted almonds.

I brought the cake as a snack for our friends. We hired boats for the day and enjoyed a day in the sun at the Norfolk broads. Wrexham to be precise.
