     Title: Kentucky Butter Cake
Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Dairy, Sauces
     Yield: 16 servings

     1 c  Butter, softened
     2 c  Sugar
     4 lg Eggs; room temp
     2 ts Vanilla extract
     3 c  A-P flour
     1 ts Baking powder
   1/2 ts Baking soda
   1/2 ts Salt
     1 c  Buttermilk

MMMMM------------------------BUTTER SAUCE-----------------------------
     1 c  Sugar
   1/2 c  Butter, cubed
   1/4 c  Water
 1 1/2 ts Almond extract
 1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract

 In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and
 fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each
 addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking
 powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture
 alternately with buttermilk, beating well after each
 addition.

 Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. tube pan. Bake @
 350ºF/175ºC until a toothpick inserted in center comes
 out clean, 55-70 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Run a knife
 around edges and center tube of pan. Invert cake onto a
 wire rack over waxed paper.

 For sauce, combine the sugar, butter and water in a
 small saucepan. Cook over medium heat just until butter
 is melted and sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat;
 stir in extracts.

 Poke holes in the top of the warm cake; spoon 1/4 cup
 sauce over cake. Let stand until sauce is absorbed.
 Repeat twice. Poke holes into sides of cake; brush
 remaining sauce over sides. Cool completely.
