Ingredients for Layer Cake
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 scant cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1-1/3 cups sifted pastry flour
  • 3 tablespoons melted vegetable butter
  • A few grains of salt
  • Vanilla flavor

Instructions
  1. Break the eggs whole into a round-bottomed mixing bowl, 3-quart or 4-quart size.
  2. Add the water, the lemon juice, the sugar, and a few grains of salt.
  3. Set the bowl into a pan of boiling water on the table, having the water about 2 inches deep, and beat quickly until the mixture is foamy and blood warm, or a little more; then remove from the water, set on the table and beat until cold, and so light that the batter will pile as it runs from the egg whip.
  4. Add the flavoring, and mix; then sift half of the flour over the batter, and fold in lightly.
  5. Sprinkle the melted butter over the mixture, and fold in with a few careful strokes.
  6. Sift the remainder of the flour over the batter, and fold in lightly; then pour into 2 paper lined cake tins, and bake in a medium oven from 10 to 12 minutes.
