Birthday Cake

In celebration of our Nation's Birthday, I am posting this recipe from Grandma's Box for simply, "Birthday Cake."

Sugar, 1 1/4 cups
Butter, 3/4 cups
Milk, 1 cup
Flour, 3 cups
Baking Powder, 3 teaspoons
Salt, 1 teaspoon
Egg whites, 4
Flavoring

Cream butter and sugar thoroughly. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together and add alternately with milk to first mixture. Beat whites of eggs until stiff and fold in last, stirring gently. Add teaspoon of any desired flavoring. Bake in 2 layer cake pans at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. Use a boiled white icing for both filling top and sides.
