3/4 c milk
1 t vanilla extract

lightly just enough to blend ingredients. Beat 200 strokes
(approximately 2 minutes by hand or on low speed of electric mixer).
Scrape bowl and spoon 2 or 3 times during mixing but do not count as
beating. Add remaining milk and egg yolks. Stir lightly until liquid
is blended into batter to avoid splashing when beating is started.

electric mixer). Scrape bowl and spoon as above (batter will be thin).
Pour into two 8" (1 1/2" deep) prepared layer cake pans. Bake in a
moderate oven (350F.) about 30 minutes. Let layers stand 10 to 15
minutes in pan. Remove cakes from pans and turn right side up. Cool
cakes completely before frosting.
Fluffy Honey Icing: Heat honey in top of double boiler, over boiling
water, for 15 minutes. Add salt to egg whites and whip to stiff foam.
Add honey slowly, continuing the beating until frosting stands in soft
peaks. Yield: Icing for 2 layer 8" cake.
