Add 1/3 of the flour and beat on medium speed until incorporated, add 1/3 milk and beat on medium speed. Continue alternating between flour and milk. Start with flour and end with flour. Add vanilla and almond and beat. Do not over beat batter or cake will be dry. Pour into a greased (using crisco) and floured tube pan. Bake at 325º for 1hr 10 mins. Do not open oven during 1st hour. Cake is done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cake rest in tube pan for 20-30 mins. Flip onto a dinner plate and let cool.
