Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter

    In another bowl, cream the softened butter until light and fluffy. Add the almond extract and mix well.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs

    Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in Almonds

    Gently fold in the toasted chopped almonds.

  7. 7

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Cool the Cakes

    Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
