Pilgrim’s recommendation for Sweet Potato Cake
• 1 1/2 cups cooking oil
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 eggs, separated
• 4 tablespoons hot water
• 2 1/2 cups sifted cake flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 1/2 cups grated raw sweet potatoes
• 1 cup chopped nuts
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
Icing
• 1 (13-oz) can evaporated milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 stick margarine
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
Combine cooking oil and sugar and beat until smooth. Add egg yolks and beat well. Add hot water. Then add dry ingredients which have been sifted together. Stir in potatoes, nuts and vanilla and beat well. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter. Bake in three greased 8-inch layer cake pans at 350В° for 25 to 30 minutes.
Use remaining ingredients for icing. Combine milk, sugar, margarine, and egg yolks in sauce pan. Cook over medium heat about 12 minutes, stirring constantly until mixture thickens. Remove from heat, add vanilla and coconut. Beat until cool and spread.
