Silver Cake
Whites of four eggs, three-fourths cup sugar, one-half cup butter, one
and one-half cup flour, one-third cup sweet milk, one teaspoonful baking
powder, one-half teaspoonful lemon juice. Cream butter and sugar, then
add eggs, then milk. Add flour next, then baking powder and, last,
flavoring. Bake in moderate oven.
To make a gold cake use the same recipe as for silver cake, substituting
yolks for whites of eggs, and vanilla in place of lemon juice.
