1 cup butter or margarine, softened 3 cups granulated sugar 6 large eggs 3 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon almond extract
Beat butter at medium speed with electric mixer about 2 minutes or until soft and creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating at medium speed 5 to 7 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until yellow disappears.
Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix at lowest speed just until blended after each addition. Stir in flavorings.
Spoon batter into a greased and floured 10-inch tube pan. Bake at 325 degrees F for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 to 15 minutes; remove from pan, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
