Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 1 2/3 cups flour
  • 6 eggs (separated)
  • Vanilla

Instructions

  1. Cream butter and sugar in a bowl. Stir in egg yolks one at a time. Sift in flour and mix thoroughly. Finally fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites. Line a cake pan with thin paper and fill up with the batter. Bake in a slow oven for about 1 hour 20 mins.

(While no vessel is specified within the recipe, this recipe appeared in a section labeled Loaf Cakes. Use a 9×5-inch loaf pan. A version I found in 1966’s The Great Scandinavian Cook Book by Karin Fredrikson, et al, offers the option of baking the batter in ring molds, which reduces the baking time to about 25 minutes.)
