Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Generously grease bottoms only of 2 (9-inch) round cake pans with shortening.
  • 2 Make cake mix as directed on box, using water, butter and eggs and stirring in almond extract. Bake as directed. Cool 10 minutes; run knife around edge of pans to loosen. Remove cakes from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • 3 In chilled large bowl, beat whipping cream, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold in pumpkin.
  • 4 Cut each cake horizontally to make 2 layers. Place 1 bottom layer, cut side up, on serving plate; top with one-fourth of the whipped cream mixture. Top with another cake layer, cut side down. Top with one-fourth of whipped cream mixture. Repeat with remaining 2 layers and whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle with almonds. Refrigerate 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate any remaining torte.

Made this in preparation for Thanksgiving. Turned out beautiful! The cream had just the right amount of flavor. Assembled easily. Recipe calls for 2 boxes of cake mix. I don't think it needs two. One box of cake mix baked according to the box directions yields 2, 8 or 9 inch cakes. Cut in half, those make 4 pieces, just as pictured. I only used one box.
