Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

¾ cup shortening
1 ¾ cups white sugar
3 cups cake flour
½ teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup milk
5 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch round pans.
  • Sift and measure cake flour. Add salt and baking powder, and sift again.
  • In a large bowl, beat shortening until smooth. Add sugar gradually, and beat until fluffy. Add sifted ingredients alternately with milk and flavorings (see Cook's Note). Beat thoroughly after each addition.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff, and fold into mixture. Pour batter into prepared pans.
