      1 c  Butter; softened
      2 c  Sugar
      4 lg Eggs; room temperature
      2 ts Vanilla extract

MMMMM------------------------BUTTER SAUCE-----------------------------
      1 c  Sugar
    1/2 c  Butter; cubed
    1/4 c  Water
  1 1/2 ts Almond extract
  1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract

  In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add
  eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in
  vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt;
  add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well
  after each addition.

  Pour into a greased and floured 10" tube pan. Bake @ 350°F/175°C
  until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 55 to
  70 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Run a knife around edges and center
  tube of pan. Invert cake onto a wire rack over waxed paper.

  For sauce, combine the sugar, butter, and water in a small
  saucepan. Cook over medium heat just until butter is melted and
  sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat; stir in extracts.

  Poke holes in the top of the warm cake; spoon 1/4 cup sauce over
  cake. Let stand until sauce is absorbed. Repeat twice. Poke holes
  into sides of cake; brush remaining sauce over sides. Cool
  completely.
