This is a nice tender cake - one of my Mom's specialties from years ago. It is a great cake to take along to a picnic.

  • 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup white sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 egg yolks 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/3 cup milk 2 egg whites 1/4 cup white sugar 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon white sugar

Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch square pan.

Great cake! The only thing I did differently was use almond extract because I was out of vanilla extract. Very moist and yummy cake!

This is an incredible cake - the name says it all! I made it in two sandwich tins and reduced the cooking time to 30 minutes and it came out perfectly. I iced it with buttercream for an anniversary cake and my husband was a very happy man. I'll definitely be making this one again :0)
