Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray two 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray.

Beat sugar and butter together with an electric beater until fluffy. Add egg and mix well. Add flour mixture alternately with evaporated milk, folding in vanilla, almond extract, and 1 cup chopped figs.
