White Mountain Cake

Two cups pulverized sugar, half cup butter beaten to a cream; add half cup sweet milk, two and a half cups flour, two and a half tea-spoons baking-powder in the flour, whites of eight eggs; bake in jelly-tins and put together with icing made by boiling a half teacup of water and three tea-cups sugar till thick; pour it slowly over the well-beaten whites of three eggs, and beat all together till cool. Beat before putting on each layer.

Sprinkle each layer thickly with grated cocoa-nut, and a handsome cocoa-nut cake will result. - Mrs. Dr. Stall, Union City, Ind.
