    List of Ingredients




    3 bars white candy with almonds (2.2 ounce)
    1/2 cup water
    1 cup butter or margarine softened
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    4 eggs separated
    2 1/4 cups self-rising flour
    1 cup buttermilk
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 jar seedless raspberry jam (12 ounce)
    Whipped Cream Frosting (below)

    Recipe



    Reserve half of one candy bar for garnish. Break up remaining bars. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine broken candy and water; heat until candy is melted and mixture smooth.  Cool for 20 minutes.

    Preheat oven to 350°F.  Spray 3 9-inch cake pans with non-stick vegetable spray.
    In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add egg yolks; beat until blended.  Beat in melted candy.  Add flour alternately with buttermilk; beat well after each addition.

    In a medium bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form.  Gradually beat in sugar until stiff peaks form; fold into batter.  Divide batter evenly among prepared cake pans.
    Bake for 30 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in pans for 10 minutes.  Remove from pans; cool completely on a wire rack.

    Spread jam between layers; frost top and sides of cake with Whipped Cream Frosting.  Chop reserved candy; sprinkle on top of cake.


    WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

    1-1/2 cups heavy cream
    1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients; beat until soft peaks form.
