Recipe View Slice and serve. Enjoy the delightful flavors of amaretto and vanilla!

For a richer amaretto flavor, substitute amaretto extract for the almond extract.
To prevent sticking, grease the Bundt pan generously with shortening and dust with flour, or use a baking spray that contains flour.
If you don't have a Bundt pan, you can bake this cake in a 9x13 inch pan. Adjust the baking time accordingly.
Garnish with toasted sliced almonds or a dusting of confectioners' sugar for an elegant presentation.
