Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cupfuls of white sugar creamed with 1/2 cupful butter
- 5 whites of eggs
- 1 cupful sweet milk, or half of milk and water
- 3 cupfuls of flour sifted before measuring, and sifted again with 2 teaspoonfuls baking powder
Directions
Divide the cake batter in two equal parts. Bake 1/2 in two layer cake tins. Divide the other half in two parts, and into one part stir 1/2 cupful hickory nut meats. Into the other stir 2 tablespoonfuls grated chocolate dissolved in a httle hot milk and cooled before using. Bake each of these in a layer cake tin. To add still farther to the ornamental appearance of the cake, 1/2 cupful of seedless raisins may be stirred into 1 of the white parts. Put together alternately light and dark. Use jelly or frosting for the filling; frost the top in either case.
