Large Oranges  
Cup Ground blanched almonds  
/2 Cup All purpose flour  
Cup Sugar  
/2 Teaspoon Salt  
Teaspoon Baking powder  
Cup Melted butter  
Eggs  
/2 Cup Cointreau  
−1/2 Quart Toasted almond ice cream  
Recipe Strawberry Compote  
Sprig fresh mint  
Confectioners' sugar  
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  
Grease a large sheet pan with butter. Place the oranges in a saucepan over  
medium heat and cover with water. Bring the oranges to a boil and cook until  
soft, about 20 minutes. Remove the oranges and cool. Using a knife, remove  
the zest and fruit. In a food processor fitted with a metal blade puree the  
zest and fruit until smooth. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the remaining  
ingredients until smooth. Add the orange puree and mix well. Pour into  
prepared pan and bake until the center springs back, about 25 to 30 minutes.  
Remove from the oven and cool. Cut the cake into 24 equal pieces. To  
assemble, place one piece of the cake in the center of 12 plates. Place 1/4  
cup of the ice cream on top of each piece of the cake. Spoon some of the  
compote over the ice cream. Place another piece of cake on top of the  
compote, forming a sandwich. Repeat the above process with the remaining ice  
cream and compote. Garnish with mint sprigs and a sprinkle of confectioners'  
sugar.
