susan's Notes:

I found this recipe in a 1993 edition of Taste of Home Magazine. My mother-in-law loved this cake.

Directions

In a large saucepan, bring butter and water to boil.

Remove from the heat, stir in flour, sugar, eggs, sour cream, almond extract, slat and baking soda until smooth.

Pour into a greased 15-in x 10 in x 1 baking pan.

Bake at 375 for 20 to 22 minutes or until cake is golden brown and tests done. Cool for 20 minutes

Meanwhile for frosting, combine butter and milk in a saucepan. Bring to boil.

Remove from heat, add sugar and extract and mix well. Stir in walnuts

Spread over warm cake.

I can attest to the fact that this recipe rocks! I am constantly requested to make this for church potlucks. It's extremely easy and feeds a large crowd. I have also made this by substituting vanilla extract for the almond, and it's fabulous either way. Just depends on your own personal taste. While the cake is baking, I wash the sauce pan I used to make it, and use it for the frosting, so clean up is easy! :)
