BUTTERSCOTCH LAYER CAKE

Cream shortening well, add sugar slowly and the yolks of eggs, beating well. Add milk, a very little at a time. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together and mix in with the first ingredients. Add flavoring and fold in the beaten whites of eggs. Bake in two greased layer tins in moderate oven about 25 minutes. Put Butterscotch Filling [page 18] between layers and on top of cake.
