    Make the topping:

    processor until needed.

    2. BUTTER and FLOUR a 9 x 12 inch baking pan.
    3. Measure the FLOUR, BAKING SODA and BAKING POWDER into a mixing bowl and
    whisk to combine. Set aside.
    4. Cream the BUTTER, SUGAR and ALMOND EXTRACT with an electric mixer on medium
    speed.
    5. Add the EGGS (without the shells), one at a time, beating for a minute after
    each addition. (Don't be alarmed if it looks curdled.
    6. Mix in the marmalade or jam on low speed.
    7. Mix in half the FLOUR mixture on low speed and beat just until it is
    incorporated.
    8. Add the BUTTERMILK and mix.
    9. Add the rest of the FLOUR and beat just until smooth.

    11. Sprinkle the topping over the cake and pat gently into the batter with your
    fingertips.
    12. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out
    clean and the cake starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
    13. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 20 to 30 minutes before serving, or,
    wait until it reaches room temperature.
