Cake
Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously butter and flour two (9-inch) round cake pans.
Beat together flour, sugar, almond flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large mixer bowl. Add butter and beat with a whisk attachment until butter is fully incorporated into the dry ingredients.
Beat together Almond Breeze, almond extract and egg whites in a small bowl. Pour half the mixture into the dry ingredients and beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and add the remaining Breeze mixture. Beat on medium-high for 1 minute more or until the batter is very smooth.
Pour equal amounts into prepared pans and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes, then carefully remove and let cool completely on wire racks.
Frosting
To prepare frosting, beat butter until light and fluffy in a mixer bowl. Add Almond Breeze, almond extract and half the powdered sugar. Beat until very smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary. Slowly add the remaining powdered sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
Spread frosting between cake layers and on the sides and top. Finish with sprinkles.
*For a lighter texture, use cake flour in place of all-purpose flour.
