Almond Sheet Cake Recipe

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a jelly roll pan (around 13×18-inch or 15×11-inch will work well).

Mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. 

In another small bowl mix together the sour cream, eggs and almond extract. 

Add sour cream/egg mixture to the flour mixture and mix just until combined. 

Add water and butter to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring mixture to a boil. 

Once the mixture is boiling, remove from heat and add to the batter, mixing to combine.

Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth with a spatula into an even layer. 

Bake in preheated oven for 17 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

When the cake is about 5 minutes away from being done cooking, prepare the frosting.

Add milk and butter to a saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil.

Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar and almond extract.

Pour warm icing over warm cake. Use a spatula to gently spread it evenly over the cake. 

Top with fresh berries, if desired. Allow cake to cool before serving.
