How to Make Almond Legend Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 10-inch bundt pan or tube pan.
- Gently press 1/2 cup (50g) chopped almonds into the bottom and halfway up the sides of the prepared pan.
- In a large bowl, combine one 15.25 oz box of your favorite white cake mix, 1/2 cup (120ml) orange juice, water as directed on cake mix box, 1/3 cup (75ml) vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon almond extract, and 3 large eggs. Beat at low speed until just moistened.
- Beat at high speed for 2 minutes.
- Carefully stir in one whole almond. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool upright in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Invert the cake onto a serving plate.
- While the cake is still warm, prepare the glaze (recipe below).
- Spoon the glaze evenly over the warm cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before serving.
