INSTRUCTIONS
Servings: 12
*=* CAKE*
Cake: Sift flour once, measure, add baking powder, and sift together three
times. Cream shortening thoroughly, add sugar gradually, and cream
together until light and fluffy. Add flour, alternately with milk, a small
amount at a time. Beat after each addition until smooth. Add vanilla. Fold
in egg whites. Bake in two greased 9" layer pans in a 375 F. oven 25 to 30
minutes. Put layers together with Orange Filling and cover top and sides
of cake with Seven Minute Frosting. Decorate with mandarin orange sections.
Filling: Combine ingredients in order given. Cook in a double boiler ten
minutes, stirring constantly. Cool. Frosting: Put egg whites, sugar, water,
corn syrup, and salt in top of double boiler and mix thoroughly. Place over
rapidly boiling water and beat constantly with a rotary egg beater until
the mixture will hold a peak (about seven minutes). Remove from hot water,
add vanilla and marshmallows and beat until cool and thick enough to
spread.
