Roast the almonds in a pan without fat, take them out and let them cool down. Drain the cherries. Put the fat, salt, vanillin sugar and 150 g sugar into a mixing bowl and whisk to a creamy mixture with the whisks of the hand mixer. Stir in the eggs bit by bit. Mix flour, almonds, brittle and baking powder and stir in alternately with the milk. Add cherries to the dough.
Line a muffin tin (12 troughs) with paper cups and spread the dough in them. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 25 minutes. Let cool on a cake rack. Melt 50 g sugar in a pan until golden brown. Draw strips on a lightly oiled piece of aluminium foil and let them dry. Dust the muffins with icing sugar and decorate with caramel
