2 1/4 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. milk
1 1/2 tsp. almond
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp. butter

Mix all ingredients 1-2 minutes with electric mixer. Pour into two (2) lightly greased loaf pans. Bake one hour at 350 degrees or until toothpick comes out clean. Top will crack.

ICING:

1/4 c. orange juice
3/4 c. sugar

If you place the loaf of bread on a sheet on aluminum foil before pouring on the icing, you can wrap the bread and avoid any mess.
