Two Excellesit Cakes.— The two 
cakes here described, eaten at the house of a friend, were 
BO excellent that ive asked the specifications for the 
American Agi'icnllurist; 1st. For a large logf, rub to a 
cream one coffee cupful of butter with two and one-half- 
cups of sugar; then stir well with it one cup sweet milk, 
four and one-half cups flour, and flavoring to taste. Just 
before baking mix thoroughly with the above one cup of 
finely grated cocoanut, the whites of seven eggs beaten 
to a stiff froth, and three teaspoonfuls baking powder. 
After baking, frost with the well-beaten white of one 
egg and sprinkle uniformly over it a cupful of finely grat¬ 
ed cocoanut. By using about half a cup more of flour, 
the above may be baked as a layer cake, requiring, of 
course, more icing.—2d. Beat the yolks of the above 
seven eggs thoroughly, add one-half cup butter previous¬ 
ly rubbed to a cream with two cups sugar, two-thirds cup 
milk, three cups flour, three teaspooiifiils baking powder, 
and flavoring desired. When well mixed, take two-fifths 
of it and stir into it two or three tablespooiifuls of choco¬ 
late previously well dissolved in a little hot ivater. Bake 
in two layers, and place between three layers baked from 
the other three-fifths. F-rost with an icing made of one 
whole egg, a tablespoonful of chocolate, one-half cup 
sugar, and a little water.
