Almond Skillet Cake

My friend Karen brought this to a baby shower — so wonderfully chewy and delicious.  She’s only ever made it in a cast iron skillet.

In a cast iron skillet put aluminum foil and spray with Pam (oil spray).  Preheat oven to 350.

Combine:

1 1/2 sticks butter, melted (3/4 cup)

1 1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs (add one at a time)

1 1/2 cup flour

1 tsp almond flavoring

Pour batter in skillet, lightly sprinkle 1 Tablespoon sugar and sliced almonds over the top.  Cook 30-35 minutes.  Cool in the pan.  When cool, fold the extra foil on top of the cake to prevent drying out.  Serve and enjoy.
