    Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Dairy, Sauces
    Yield: 16 servings

    1 c Butter, softened
    2 c Sugar
    4 lg Eggs; room temp
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    3 c A-P flour
    1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Baking soda
    1/2 ts Salt
    1 c Buttermilk

    MMMMM------------------------BUTTER SAUCE-----------------------------
    1 c Sugar
    1/2 c Butter, cubed
    1/4 c Water
    1 1/2 ts Almond extract
    1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract

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

    Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. tube pan. Bake @
    350ºF/175ºC 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.

    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.

    Poke holes in the top of the warm cake; spoon 1/4 cup
    sauce over cake. Let stand until sauce is absorbed.
    Repeat twice. Poke holes into sides of cake; brush
    remaining sauce over sides. Cool completely.
