World War 2 Dessert Recipes
WW2 WAR CAKE
An eggless, almost fatless, milkless cake, very aptly named - it was popular during wartime shortages. It is dense and delicious uniced. For those who yearn for a good cake, but must resist fat, this will do it.

- Cook gently for 5 minutes, then remove from the heat and let cool until the mixture is comfortably warm to your finger.
- While the mixture is cooling, preheat t he oven to 350F.
- Grease and flour an 8x4-inch baking pan.
- Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add them to the cooled sugar mixture, beating until no drifts of flour are visible and the batter is smooth.
- Stir in the walnuts.
- Spread evenly in the baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a broomstraw inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn onto a rack to cool completely.

- Mix with confectioner's sugar, a drop of vanilla, and a pinch salt. Glaze the cake while hot.
