INSTRUCTIONS
CAKE: Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder 3 times. Set aside.
With an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar for 5 minutes.
Gradually beat in the flour. Beat the egg whites stiff. As they begin to
form peaks, beat in the 2 tbsp. sugar. Fold gently into flour mixture. Turn
the batter into 2 well greased 8 inch aluminum cake pans. Bake at 350F for
25 minutes. In a small pot, bring the orange juice and 2 tbsp. sugar to a
boil. Saturate the cakes with juice mixture. Let cool and unmold. Use
chocolate butter creme recipe to fill between the layers and frost.
CHOCLOLATE BUTTER CREME: Beat egg yolks until pale and foamy. Put the
water, sugar and cream of tartar in a saucepan; cook to a thick syrupy
consistency. Remove from heat and stir in the instant coffee. Slowly pour
the hot (not boiling) syrup over the egg yolks, beating constantly;
continue beating until thick and lukewarm. Gradually beat in the butter and
shortening and beat until mixture is completely smooth. Fold in the melted
chocolate. Beat again. Source: Great Moments in Cooking ch.

A Message from our Provider:
“When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God. #Henry Blackaby”
