1 box Pillsbury yellow cake mix
1 can almond paste
3/4 stick butter
3 eggs
1 1/4 c. water

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Combine all ingredients and mix at medium speed for 2 minutes, then at high speed for 2 minutes.

Bake in a greased and lightly floured tube pan until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (approximately 50-60 minutes).

When cake is done, immediately invert onto cake plate.

Make confectioners drizzle icing by mixing 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and enough milk to make a glaze. Glaze cake while still warm, making certain to cover all of cake.

Quickly sprinkle almond slivers on top as the glaze hardens quickly.

Cool before cutting.
