  6. Add the flour alternating with the milk/egg white mixture in 3 additions being sure to airate well
  7. Divide batter between cake pans
  8. Bake for 15 to 25 minutes depending on your oven. The cakes should spring back when touched lightly and a toothpick will come out just clean. Cool in pans on rack 10 minutes then remove to cool completely

Once its chilled and firm its very easy to frost
