4 Egg White Cake Recipe 375

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round pans.
• Beat butter and 1 cup of sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color.
• In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks well, then add to butter mixture.
• Sift together flour and baking powder. Add alternately with the milk to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat well. Add vanilla.
• Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Add 1 cup sugar to the egg whites. Fold into cake batter.
• Divide evenly into three prepared 9 inch round pans. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Be sure that your 10 inch tube pan is clean and dry. Any amount of oil or residue could deflate the egg whites. Sift together the flour, and 3/4 cup of the sugar, set aside.
• In a large bowl, whip the egg whites along with the vanilla, cream of tartar and salt, to medium stiff peaks. Gradually add the remaining sugar while continuing to whip to stiff peaks. When the egg white mixture has reached its maximum volume, fold in the sifted ingredients gradually, one third at a time. Do not overmix. Put the batter into the tube pan.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cake springs back when touched. Balance the tube pan upside down on the top of a bottle, to prevent decompression while cooling. When cool, run a knife around the edge of the pan and invert onto a plate.

Steps:

• Measure sifted cake flour, baking powder, and salt; sift together three times.
• In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add 1/2 cup sugar gradually, and continue beating only until meringue will hold up in soft peaks.
• Beat butter until smooth. Gradually add remaining 1 cup sugar, and cream together until light and fluffy. Add sifted ingredients alternately with milk a small amount at a time, beating after each addition until smooth. Mix in flavorings. Add meringue, and mix thoroughly into batter. Spread batter in a 15 x 10 x 1 inch pan which has been lined on the bottom with parchment paper.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 35 minutes. Cool cake in pan 10 minutes, then remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. This cake may also be baked in two 9 inch round pans for 30 to 35 minutes, or in three 8 inch round pans for 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour two 8 or 9 inch cake pans and set aside. In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the butter, 2/3 cup of the milk and the vanilla. Beat for about 2 minutes. Add remaining milk and the egg whites. Beat for another 2 minutes. Pour into the pans and bake for 25-30 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes and then turn out on a rack to cool completely before frosting. Frosting: Using either a double boiler or a metal bowl placed over a pot of boiling water, combine the egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar and water. Place over boiling water and beat with a mixer until stiff peaks form, usually 7-9 minutes. Scrape the bowl occasionally. Fold in the vanilla. Two tips: Make sure the water is boiling before you start beating and make sure everything is very clean and dry. Using about 1/3 of the frosting, fold in the raisins and dates. Use this as a filling between the 2 layers. Frost the tops and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9 x 13 inch pan.
• Cream together shortening and sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
• In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Mix well. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake for 45 minutes, or until cake tests done. Cool.
