1/2 lb. butter
1 2/3 cup sugar
5 eggs, beaten until lemon-colored
2 cups cake flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. almond extract

Cream butter and sugar well. Add eggs. Add flour with baking powder and salt. Beat all together and add flavorings while beating. Pour in well-greased tube pan and bake in 325-degree oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

This recipe makes a medium-sized, rather than a large cake.
