How to Make Millionaire Pound Cake

1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. Grease a 10-inch tube pan with 2 tablespoons of butter. Dust the bottom and sides with 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, tapping out excess. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole milk. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
5. Stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon almond extract until well blended.
6. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If browning too quickly, loosely tent the cake with foil.
7. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before inverting it onto the rack to cool completely.
