Ingredients 

  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder

Topping Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ground almonds
  • 1/3 cup sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350. Grease an 9x9 or equivalent round cake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a mixing bowl or stand mixer, beat together the butter or margarine, sugar, vanilla extract, almond extract, and milk. Add the flour, baking powder and baking soda, and salt. Beat all together. Note: If you use white flour or half and half white-wheat, you will need to decrease the milk by 1/4 to 1/3 cups. Fold in the raspberries.
  • Pour the batter into the greased cake pan.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients for the topping. Cut in the butter or margarine with a fork or pastry blender. Sprinkle the topping over the batter in the cake pan.
