Horn & Hardart Queen Bee Cake

http://recipehelpers.com/secret-copycat-recipes/99645-horn-hardart-automat-queen-bee-cake.html Queen Bee Cake

Cake:
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 envelope (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
2 cups flour
4 tbsp butter
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg
2 egg yolks

Conbine 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt,
1 envelope active dry yeast and 1/2 cup flour
in a mixing bowl.

In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter in
1/2 cup milk. Warm to about 120 degrees F.

On low mixer speed, gradually beat milk/butter
mixture into flour mixture, just until blended.
Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping sides
often. Beat in 1 large egg plus 2 egg yolks and
another 1/2 cup flour. Beat 2 minutes more.

Stir in 1 cup flour to form a soft dough. Turn
dough onto well floured board; knead until smooth
and elastic, about 5 minutes. Work in just enough
additional flour to make dough manageable.

Shape dough into a ball and place in a greased bowl,
turning to coat surface. Cover loosely and let
stand in a warm place for an hour to rise.

When doubled, punch dough down and turn onto
lightly floured board; let rest 15 minutes.

Flour hands and pat dough into a buttered,
9-inch springform pan.

Cover with a towel and let rise for 45 minutes,
until doubled . (Old recipes say to pat the dough
to 3/4-inch thickness on a buttered baking sheet,
so there is a lot of leeway in pan size.)

Topping:
3 tbsp butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup almonds, blanched and slivered
1/4 cup honey
1/4 tsp almond extract

Prepare topping: 
Melt 3 tablespoons butter in 1/4 cup brown sugar
in saucepan over low heat. Add 1 cup blanched,
slivered almonds and 1/4 cup honey. Heat to
boiling, stirring often. Remove from heat;
stir in 1/4 teaspoon almond extract. 

Spoon topping onto risen cake dough.

Bake at 325 F for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden.
Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to
wire rack.

Filling:
3 large egg yolks
6 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp flour
1 cup light cream
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract

Prepare filling:
Beat 3 large egg yolks with 6 tablespoons sugar until
thick. Lightly whisk in 3 tablespoons flour until blended.
Heat 1 cup light cream, and whisk it slowly into egg
mixture. Over low heat, stirring constantly, bring mixture
just to a simmer. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon
each vanilla and almond extract.

Slice cooled cake into 2 layers and spread bottom layer
with filling. Top with almond-crusted layer. Serve.

Note: a 3 1/2-ounce package instant vanilla pudding
made with 3/4 cup mild and 1/2 cup heavy cream plus
1/2 teaspoon almond extract may be substituted for
filling.
