This is my new favorite dessert...a super moist, almond-flavored pound cake that transports you to your Happy Place!

- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Then set aside.
- In small mixing bowl, whisk together milk, vinegar and Amaretto. Then set aside.
- In the large bowl of a stand mixer, do the following (Tip: the flex edge beater attachment works great for this!)...

- Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla and almond until well combined.
- Alternate beating in the flour mixture and the milk mixture.
- Pour batter into prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
