Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease and flour a 10" Bundt pan. Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and ground almonds. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 2 c. sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the 1 1/2 tsp. almond extract and vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with 1 c. milk, mixing just until incorporated. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and invert on a wire rack. Cool 10 minutes longer.

Place rack on waxed paper. Combine 1/4 c. milk, 3/4 c. sugar, 1/2 tsp. almond extract and toasted sliced almonds; pour over warm cake. Sprinkle with more almonds as desired.
