Butter
4 tablespoons (softened)
Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix
2 cups (plus extra to dust the pan)

Milk
1/2 cup (divided)

Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
Grease an 8-inch or 9-inch round cake pan with non-stick spray or softened butter. Dust the greased pan with Pamela’s Ultimate Baking Mix or rice flour to prevent sticking.
3
In a mixing bowl, separate the eggs, placing the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another. Beat the egg whites with a mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
4
In another bowl, combine the softened butter, baking mix, and sugar. Blend on medium speed for about 1 minute until the mixture is well-combined and crumbly.
5
Gradually add in 1/4 cup of milk along with the vanilla and almond extracts. Mix on medium speed for another 1 minute until smooth.
6
Add the remaining 1/4 cup of milk along with the egg yolks to the mixture. Blend for 1 minute until fully incorporated.
7
Gently fold the stiff egg whites into the batter, taking care not to deflate the mixture.
8
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, filling it no more than halfway to allow room for rising.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes or until the cake springs back when gently pressed in the center. Avoid opening the oven door during baking.
10
Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan until it's warm to the touch. Run a knife around the edges to loosen it, then carefully invert the cake onto a cooling rack.
11
Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving.
