Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; set aside.
In a medium-size bowl, combine butter or margarine, egg, sour cherries, almond extract, and nuts: add to flour mixture.
Bake, uncovered, in an ungreased 9-inch square pan 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cake is done when the internal temperature registers approximately 205 to 209 degrees F. on your cooking thermometer.
Remove from oven and cut into squares while still warm.
Prepare Cherry Sauce. Serve the Cherry Delight Cake with Hot Cherry Sauce and prepared whipped topping.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine cherry juice, cornstarch, sugar, almond extract, and butter or margarine; cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
