  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  6. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  10. Whip cream with amaretto until soft peaks form for the filling.
  11. Frost with icing of your choice and serve.

Notes

Make sure the butter is softened, not melted, for the best texture when creaming. Store leftover cake in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze individual slices for up to a month.
