Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
6 large egg whites
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
¾ cup white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
6 large egg yolks
2 cups sifted cake flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch cake pan.
Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Add 3/4 cup sugar gradually, beating until very stiff.
Cream butter and 1 cup sugar in a large bowl with an electric beater until light in color. Add egg yolks, and beat until thick and fluffy. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt over batter; fold in. Gently fold in egg whites. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 to 60 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
