Viennese pie
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I'd like to point out that the best filling option is cherries, but if you'd like, you can experiment and use any berries you prefer. Almond flakes are an essential ingredient, so be sure to use them. Read the recipe and see for yourself.

1. First, turn on the oven and set the temperature to 180 degrees. If using frozen cherries, thaw them. Place softened butter (reserve a small amount for greasing the pan) and sugar into a deep bowl. Rub together until smooth and uniform.
