2 ¾ cups sifted cake flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
4 egg whites
1 ½ cups white sugar
¾ cup butter
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
HOW TO MAKE HEAVENLY WHITE CAKE
Step 1: Sift three times the measured sifted cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2: Place the egg whites in a mixing bowl and beat until foamy. Slowly add in half a cup of sugar while beating continuously until the form of a soft peak.
Step 3: Then, beat the butter until smooth before adding in the rest of the sugar. Cream until light and fluffy. Stir in the sifted ingredients alternately with the milk. Make sure to add a little milk at a time and beat every after each addition until smooth. Combine the flavorings, then, add in the meringue. Mix well until incorporated.
Step 4: Pour and spread the batter into a parchment-lined 15 x 10 x 1-inch pan.
Step 5: Place inside the oven and bake at 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C for about 30 to 35 minutes.
Step 6: Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it cool first for at least 10 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring into a wire rack to cool completely.
NOTE:
You can bake this in two 9-inch round pans for about 30 to 35 minutes or 25 to 30 minutes if you are using three 8-inch round pans.
It is suggested to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper to avoid forming a thicker crust and to make sure that the cake comes out in the pan in one piece.
