Million Dollar Pound Cake (My Version) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb butter, softened (no substitutes, please)
    2 cups granulated sugar
    1 cup brown sugar
    6 eggs
    4 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup evaporated milk (not sweetened condensed milk)
    1 teaspoon almond extract
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
    In a larger mixing bowl, cream the butter with the sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, and cream mixture until light and fluffy-- 5 to 10 minutes.
    Add the flour alternately with the evaporated milk, beginning and ending with the flour. Pour into a greased and floured tube cake pan. Place pan on a cookie sheet and put into a preheated 300 degree oven.
    Bake until toothpick inserted comes out clean, anywhere from 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes.
    Let cake cool in pan for 10-15 minutes before turning out of pan to cool completely on a rack. Flavors are even better the next day.
