AN ICE CREAM CAKE
(
German) - (
Pennsylvania Germans)
Two cups of pulverized sugar, 1 cup of butter, 1 cup sweet milk,
whites of 8 eggs, 1 teaspoonful soda, 2 teaspoonfuls of cream of
tartar, 3 cups of flour. From same proportions of everything, only
using the 8 yolks instead of whites of eggs, may be made a yellow
cake, thus having two good sized layer cakes with alternate layers of
white and yellow. Put cakes together with white icing. This was an old
recipe of Aunt Sarah's mother, used when cream of tartar and soda took
the place of baking powder.
