Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper. Grease and flour the bottoms and sides of the pans, making sure to remove excess flour.
Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, until well incorporated.
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
Mix milk, vanilla, and almond extract together in a third bowl.
Alternate adding flour mixture and milk mixture to butter mixture, blend well. Evenly distribute batter between the 2 prepared cake pans.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove cakes from the oven, let sit for 5 minutes. Let cool completely on wire racks before removing cakes from the pans.
