Blend in the corn syrup and egg yolks. Beat in vanilla. Add dry ingredients alternately with coffee to creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.
- Beat egg whites in another bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites into cake batter. Pour batter into a greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven 45 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on rack.
- NOTE: This cake recipe dates from WWII and as you can see, sugar was very precious and in short supply.
