tablespoonfuls OF sugar. half teaspoon
full OF cinnamon and ground almonds to
taste-about two or three rounded table
spoonfuls. Mix the -four. almond powder
and sugar thoroughly together Then add
the butter with fork or spoon In such
a way that little Jumps are formed. This
can be done by using choppng motion
Some German cooks rub the mixture be-
tween the palms OF the hands. but the
other way seems TO be the better OF the
two As soon as the coffee cake is spread
with this mixture bake II in a very quick
oven. The -four should be measured care
fully for this cake. as too much gives It
a loury taste.
