Ingredients

• FOR THE CAKE:
• 1-1/2 stick Butter, Softened
• 2 cups Scant Sugar
• 3 cups Flour, Sifted
• 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1-1/4 cup Whole Milk
• 3 whole Egg Whites, Beaten Until Stiff.

• FOR THE TOPPING:
• 1-1/2 stick Butter, Softened
• 3/4 cups Flour
• 1-1/2 cup Brown Sugar
• 2 Tablespoons Cinnamon
• 1-1/2 cup Pecans, Chopped

 

Preparation Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat egg whites and set aside. 
• Cream butter and sugar. Add flour mixture and milk alternately until combined. Don't overbeat.
• Fold in beaten egg whites with a rubber spatula. 
• Spread in a well-greased 9 x 13 (or LARGER!) baking pan. A cake pan with higher sides would be best.
• In a separate bowl, combine topping ingredients with a pastry cutter until crumbly. Sprinkle all over the top.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until no longer jiggly. Serve warm---delicious!
