  • Prep Time NaN minutes
  • Cook Time 50-55 minutes
  • Yield 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup softened butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and generously grease a 12-cup bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt. Set aside.
  3. In another mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar with softened butter until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing until smooth. Blend in both the vanilla and almond extracts.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients and milk in alternating portions until well combined. The batter should be thick and smooth.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with crumbs. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before inverting onto a large platter. Allow cooling completely.
  6. For the icing, whisk together powdered sugar, almond extract, and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake and top with sliced almonds.

Notes

Ensure the bundt pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
Let the cake cool completely before icing for best results.
