How to make
-
STEP 1
Combine all salsa ingredients in bowl; mix well. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until chilled and juices form.
-
STEP 2
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour bottom only of 8x4-inch loaf pan. Set aside.
-
STEP 3
Combine sugar and butter in bowl; beat at medium speed until creamy. Add eggs and almond extract; beat, scraping bowl occasionally, until creamy. Add flour, baking powder and salt; beat at low speed until smooth. Add half & half; beat just until mixed.
-
STEP 4
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 53-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan; place onto wire cooling rack. Cool completely.
-
STEP 5
Cut cake into 10 slices; place onto individual serving plates. Top each with 1/4 cup salsa, dollop of whipped cream and garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
Tip #1
To make ahead, prepare cake and wrap cooled cake securely in plastic food wrap. Freeze up to 2 weeks. The salsa can be made up to 4 hours ahead. The berries will become more juicy and the flavors will blend more intensely.
Tip #2
If you prefer, use all strawberries instead of mixed berries for the salsa.
