Yield: 1 Servings
Recipe by luhu.jp

Ingredients:
3 cup: Cake flour, sifted
3 t: Baking powder,
1/2 t: Salt,
2/3 cup: Butter, or shortening
1 3/4 cup: Sugar,
5 each: Egg whites, unbeaten
1 cup: Milk,
1 t: Vanilla,

Directions:

Sift flour once, measure, add baking powder and salt and sift together
three times. Cream butter thoroughly, add sugar gradually, and cream
together until light and fluffy. Add egg whites, one at a time,
beating very thoroughly after each. Add flour, alternately with
milk, a small amount at a time, beating after each addition until
smooth. Add vanilla. Bake in 2 greased deep 9 inch layer pans, in a
moderate oven 375 deg. 25 minutes, or until done.
Spread Boiled Frosting (see recipe) between layers and on top and
sides of cake, making deep swirls in the frosting around the top edge
of the cake, but smooth frosting in the center. Sprinkle tiny colored
candies in swirls of frosting around edge of cake. Write "Happy
Birthday" in the center, with tinted frosting. Or sprinkle with
coconut while frosting is still soft. Tiny silver dragees may also
be used for decorating instead of the colored candies.
