Ingredients
Scale
- 1⅔ cups (209g) all purpose flour, spooned and leveled or weighed
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (113g) salted butter, cut into pieces
- ½ cup water
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ teaspoon almond extract
- ½ cup (113g) salted butter, cut into pieces
- ⅓ cup milk
- 4 cups (480g) powdered sugar, sifted if lumpy
- ½ teaspoon EACH vanilla extract and almond extract
- ¾ cup (100g) chopped roasted salted almonds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10x15x1-inch 'jelly roll' pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt, ensuring accurate flour measurement.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter with water. Bring this mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for 30 seconds. Pour it over the flour mixture and stir until thick, using a wooden spoon or spatula.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together sour cream, eggs, baking soda, vanilla, and almond extract. Combine this mixture with the flour mixture and stir until just combined, being cautious not to overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Tap the pan on the countertop to eliminate air bubbles. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
