  • 3. Spread the batter onto the bottom and up the sides of the spring form pan about 1 inch, making a well.
  • 4. Combine the cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 egg, beat until well combined. Pour over the batter in the springform pan staying inside the well you made in the cake.
  • 5. Spread the strawberry preserves on top on the cream cheese batter. Sprinkle the reserved crumbs over the cream cheese layer, then sprinkle the sliced almonds over all.
  • 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes or until filling is set. Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, then remove the sides of the spring form pan and cool completely.
