- Gently add the dry mixture into the butter mixture, followed by sour cream, vegetable oil, vanilla, and almond extract.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 28-30 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Cool the cake on a wire rack for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely.
