Ingredients

  • one-half cupfuls of butter
  • 1-1/2 cupfuls of sugar
  • 2-1/2 pints of flour
  • 1-1/2 teaspoonfuls of baking powder
  • 1 cupful of milk
  • 1 teaspoonful of extract of peach

One and one-half cupfuls of butter, 1-1/2 cupfuls of sugar, whites of five eggs, 2-1/2 pints of flour, 1-1/2 teaspoonfuls of baking powder, 1 cupful of milk, 1 teaspoonful of extract of peach. Rub the butter and sugar to a light cream; add the egg whites, 1 at a time, beating a few minutes between each; add the flour, sifted, with the powder, then the extract and milk; mix into a rather thin batter; pour into a paper-lined tin, and bake in a rather hot but steady oven 50 minutes.
