So I'm sending along some of favorite foods my Mom used to fix in the 40's and 50's. Her name is Veva.

Sift part "A" into a mixing bowl. Add part "B". Beat with mixer at high speed for 2 ins. Add part "C". Beat 1 minute more. Fold in 3 stiffly beaten egg whites. Bake in 9x13 inch cake pan until done in center. No time given.
