Since my friend K is allergic to walnuts and hazelnuts, her original choice of dessert (a maple-walnut cake with maple mousse) at Niagara-on-the-Lake's Cannery Restaurant was out of the question. She does love almonds though, so I brought them into the mix instead and cooked up a fantastic mousse and ganache to crown the whole thing off!

In a large bowl, beat together milk mixture, melted butter, water, maple syrup, maple extract and vanilla.Beat in flour mixture in two additions, mixing smooth after each.Bake for 40-45 minutes, until tests done.
