Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 8 oz white chocolate
  • 5 eggs, room temperature
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter and flour a 10-inch bundt pan, ensuring even coverage, and set aside.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, place the white chocolate and microwave on high for about 1 minute or until it becomes soft enough to stir until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the sugar and room temperature butter until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract, almond extract, and melted white chocolate until fully incorporated.
  • With the mixer on low speed, alternate adding the flour mixture and the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Use a spatula to level the top.
  • Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15minutes. Then, carefully run a knife along the edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Invert the pan onto a cooling rack and allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
