Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, room temperature
3 cups white sugar
6 eggs, room temperature
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon orange extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. It should be noticeably lighter in color. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla, orange and almond extracts. Blend in the flour mixture, alternating with the sour cream, until fully incorporated. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Allow cake to cool on rack before removing from pan to cool completely.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and it didn't have much flavor.
