List of Ingredients




7 Eggs -- separated
1 cup Confectioners' sugar
1 cup Sifted cake flour

Recipe



Cake directions:
Beat egg yokes until thick and lemon colored. Add confectioners'
sugar
gradually, beating constantly. Sift flour and salt together and fold
into
yolk mixture. Beat egg whites until stiff enough to hold a peak and
fold
in lightly.
Line seven-layer cake pans with paper and grease the paper. Divide
batter evenly among pans and bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for
12
minutes. Remove from pans at once.
Frosting (filling) directions:
For the frosting, heat chocolate and water in the top of double
boiler.
Mix eggs and sugar thoroughly, combine with melted chocolate and cook
until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add butter and
beat
until well blended. Add vanilla and continue beating until filling is
stiff enough to spread. Cover each layer and top and sides of cake
with
filling.
NOTE: It may be necessary to place several toothpicks through the top
layers to hold them in place until filling sets.
Serve after 24 hours. Serves 14 to 16.
