INEXPENSIVE SUNSHINE CAKE
- 5 eggs.
- 1 cup granulated sugar.
- 1 cup sifted flour.
Beat whites of eggs very stiff and stir in thoroughly, then fold the flour, stirring only just enough to mix it in. If stirred too much, the cake will be tough. Bake in a tube pan. This is a delicious cake if carefully made according to directions. No butter or baking powder is used. Bake in a very moderate oven at first, gradually adding more heat until cake is baked.
