    1 teaspoon baking soda
    ½ teaspoon salt
    1½ cups flour

    Recipe



    Cream butter and sugar. Stir in egg yolk. Stir the soda into the sour cream. Sift the dry ingredients together twice. Add all ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture in the order given.

    Bake in 2 buttered and lightly floured layer-cake tins about 20 to 25 minutes in a preheated 350º oven.

    When cool, spread top of one layer with the filling: Mix filling ingredients in order given and cook 20 minutes, stirring often so mixture will not scorch.

    Center plain layer over filled layer and frost top and sides with frosting:

    Boil sugars and water until they spin a thread. Pour slowly over the beaten egg whites. Frost the cake.

    Melt 2 ounces (2 squares) of unsweetened chocolate over hot water. Pour over cake and let drip down the sides.
