Yankee-Doodle Cake
Dear Aunt Daisy, : | Do you think ‘any of oyr readers could supply a recipe for a Yankee-Doodl« cake? The one I tasted was a sponge sandwich with a cup of minced raisins in it, also some hot milk. "Rewi," Castle Rock. ~. Here is my Yankee-Doodile recipe. Tke milk is not specified as, hot. Halt a cup butter or other shortening; 11/2 cups flour; 1 small cup sugar; % cup milk; 2 eggs; 1 cup raisins (put through mincer); 2 teaspoon baking soda, Beat butter and sugar, add eggs well beaten, then flour, raisins, and lastly milk in which soda has been dissolved. Mix raisins in well. Cook in sandwich tins in moderate oven about 30 minutes. Join with cream filling or dissolve a good knob of butter in a little boiling water and add, icing sugar to make into rich filling-add a little vanilla and chopped walnuts. Also ice top and sprinkle with flakes. A little rum essence can be added to the raisins (or real rum)-they sink to the bottom while cooking.
