How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Sift together flour and sugar.Set aside.
  • In a large bowl beat egg whites with salt and cream of tartar till soft peaks form. Add the vanilla and maple flavoring.
  • Add the sugar a little at a time and beat till stiff.
  • Gradually fold the flour/sugar into egg whites about a 1/4 at a time.
  • Spread half of batter into tube pan and sprinkle with the chopped walnuts. Using a knife cut through to mix in nuts. Add the the rest of the batter.
  • Bake about 35 mins. Cool inverted on a wire rack.
  • There is no need to use any frosting on this cake as it is great without it but I mixed up enough powdered sugar with some milk and about 1/2 tsp maple flavor extract to make a thin drizzle which I did put on the cake. I then sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top.
