Kentucky Butter Cake

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened

2 cups sugar

4 large eggs, room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk

Butter Sauce:

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter, cubed

1/4 cup water

1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract

1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Step1: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.

Step2: Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well after each addition.

Step3: Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. tube pan. Bake at 350° until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 55-70 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.
Run a knife around edges and center tube of pan. Invert cake onto a wire rack over waxed paper.

Step4: For sauce, combine the sugar, butter and water in a small saucepan.
Cook over medium heat just until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat; stir in extracts.

Step5: Poke holes in the top of the warm cake; spoon 1/4 cup sauce over cake. Let stand until sauce is absorbed.

ENJOY!
