## Ingredients

- 195 g cake flour
- 210 g granulated sugar
- 0.25 tsp baking soda
- 1.25 tsp baking powder
- 0.25 tsp fine salt
- 170 g melted unsalted butter
- 2 room temp eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp almond extract
- 127 g sour cream
- 116 mL whole milk
- 226 g unsalted room temp butter
- pinch fine salt
- 0.5 tsp almond extract
- 12 oz powdered sugar
- 30 mL heavy cream

## Instructions

1. Replace cake flour with all-purpose flour and two tablespoons of corn starch for every cup of flour if cake flour is not available.
2. Add almond extract to the batter.
3. Add almond extract to the buttercream.
4. Add a little less frosting on top of the cupcakes for the perfect cake to buttercream ratio.

## Tips

- To get a perfect crumb, use cake flour. If you don't have cake flour, replace it with all-purpose flour and for every cup, remove two tablespoons of flour and replace with two tablespoons of corn starch to mimic cake flour's texture.
- Be careful with almond extract as too much can overpower the flavor.
