Steps:
- Lay butter and eggs out to get room temperature for 30-45 minutes before beginning the cake. Generously grease and flour a large 10-cup tube cake pan. In a very large mixing bowl and using a mixer on medium speed, beat the butter until creamy and pale colored, about 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar until all of it has been incorporated and the texture is light and fluffy and almost white in color. Beat in one egg at a time, mixing just until each egg is blended. On low speed, add the flour to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour. (1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, 1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, 1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, remaining 1 c flour). Stir in both extracts* (see note at end first). Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Pour batter into prepared tube pan and bake on center rack of oven for 1 hr 30-40 minutes, or until center tests done with a long wooden toothpick or skewer. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes then remove cake to cool completely on the wire rack. Store covered at room temperature. Serve with whipped cream/whipped topping, chocolate syrup, fresh berries, or my favorite, vanilla ice cream! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For the optional chocolate batter: *Omit the almond extract from the cake batter above. Remove about HALF the batter to another mixing bowl; then whisk in 1/4 cup cocoa powder just until combined. Alternately add the two bowls of batter to the prepared tube pan and bake as directed above.

[email protected]This cake was very good, but it was a bit too dry for my taste. The marble effect was beautiful and the cake was very moist. I would definitely make this cake again, but I would increase the amount of butter.
