The name of this cake just makes me want to bake it. It conjures images of girls in party dresses with fluffy crinolines, gloves, glasses of punch and boys with their hair slicked down on the other side of the room. I think I’d ice this with a vanilla icing and top it maybe with cut strawberries. Mmmmmm.
Golden Chiffon Cake
8x8x2 – Oven 350
In one bowl sift:
1 c all purpose flour
3/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp B.P.
1/2 tsp salt
Mix well and add:
1/4 c Wesson oil
3 egg yolks unbeaten
4 tbsp cold water
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp grated lemon rind (if desired)
Beat until smooth
In large second bowl, put 1/2 cup egg whites & 1/4 tsp cream of tartar. Beat until very stiff peaks. Pour batter from first bowl gradually over beaten egg whites, folding in carefully. Don’t stir. Pour into ungreased pan. Bake 30-35 minutes at 350 until done. Hang upside down until cold. Remove from pan.
It does sound good, but what a lot of dishes for one 8×8 cake!
