| | | Flour |9 qt. | | | | Salt |2 tbsp. | | | | ----------------------+----------+------+--------+---------+---------- Cream the fat and sugar thoroughly. Mix the dry ingredients and add alternately to the fat and sugar with the milk. Fold in the well-beaten whites last. This makes eighteen two-layer cakes. If preferred, this amount may be baked in square tins, twenty-four by twenty-four inches, and will fill three pans. Where a kitchen mixing machine is used in cake making the best results are obtained by creaming the fat and sugar in the machine for from twenty to thirty minutes and then adding the remainder of the ingredients and completing the mixing quickly.
