Gold Cake

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1/2 cup of butter
  • 2 cups of flour
  • yolks of 6 eggs
  • grated rind and juice of a lemon or orange
  • 1/2 teaspoonful of soda, mixed with the flour, and sifted twice

Instructions

Cream the butter; add the sugar, then the beaten yolks and the flour, beating hard for several minutes. Last, add the lemon or orange juice, and bake like silver cake; frosting, if liked. If frosting is made for either or both cakes, the extra yolks may be used in making this one, eight being still nicer than six.
