- whites of 6 eggs, or if not too particular, 3 whole eggs may be used instead

Divide the batter. To one-half add 1 1/2 cupfuls chopped figs, and bake in two jelly cake tins. To the other half add:
- 2 tablespoonfuls molasses
- 1 teaspoonful cinnamon

Bake in two jelly cake tins. Put together in alternate layers of light and dark, using plain frosting. Almond Frosting is a very great addition.
