INGREDIENTS

2 3/4 cups sifted cake flour

4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
4 egg whites
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3/4 cup butter
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

STEPS

Measure out the sifted cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Sift them all together three times.

In a mixing bowl, beat in the egg whites until foamy. Add a 1/2 cup of sugar gradually, and continue to beat only until the meringue will hold up in soft peaks.
In a different bowl, beat in the butter until smooth. Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of sugar, and cream it together until it's light and fluffy. Add the sifted ingredients alternately with the milk, a small amounts at a time, beating after each addition until it is smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract. Add in the meringue, and mix thoroughly into the batter. Spread the batter in a 15 x 10 x 1 inch pan. You can use parchment paper to minimize the mess.
Bake in the oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to finish cooling. The cake may also be baked in two 9 inch round pans for 30 to 35 minutes, or in three 8 inch round pans for 25 to 30 minutes.
After cooling, top it with vanilla icing. After icing the cake, you are ready to serve
