Cream butter and shortening; gradually add 1 1/4 cups sugar, beating well at
medium speed of an electric mixer. Add egg yolks, and beat well. Add lemon
rind, juice, and flavorings; beat well. Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and
salt. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with

beating until stiff peaks form; fold egg white mixture into batter. Pour batter
into prepared pan. Press whole almond just below surface of batter. Bake at
