    List of Ingredients




    1 stick margarine
    1/2 c. Crisco
    2 c. sugar
    5 eggs, separated
    1 c. chopped pecans
    2 c. plain flour
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1 c. buttermilk
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1 c. coconut

    Recipe



    Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Preheat oven to 350 deg. Grease and flour 4 (9-in.) round cake pans. Sift together flour and soda; set aside. In a large bowl, cream margarine and shortening until fluffy. Add sugar; beat well. Add egg yolks and beat after each addition. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk; mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla, coconut and nuts. Fold in egg whites. Pour evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 20 - 25 min. or until layers test done. I also have made this in a 9x13-in pan and works just as well. Increase baking time to about 35 min.

    Frosting:

    16 oz. cream cheese, softened
    1/2 stick margarine, softened
    1 16-oz. box 10-x powdered sugar
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1/2 c. chopped pecans

    Beat together cream cheese and margarine until smooth. Add sugar and mix well. Stir in vanilla and nuts. Thin with a drop or two of milk if necessary to obtain spreading consistency. Spread over layers, top and sides of cool cake.
