Time 1h5m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1 cup water
3 eggs
2 cups white sugar
½ cup buttermilk
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
½ cup butter
5 tablespoons milk
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and grease and flour a 10x15 inch sheet pan.
  • Stir together the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Place 1 cup butter with the water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from the heat, and set aside to cool.
  • Beat eggs in a separate mixing bowl, and stir in the sugar, buttermilk, boiled butter mixture, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture, and stir until the batter is well mixed. Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let the cake cool before icing.
  • To make icing, place 1/2 cup of butter and the milk into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Remove from the heat, and beat in the confectioners' sugar, chopped pecans, and vanilla extract. Ice the cooled cake with the warm frosting.
