2 C. cake flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/3 C. sugar (or substitute)
3 Tbsp. dry buttermilk
3/4 C. water, room temperature
1/3 C. vegetable oil
1/4 C. sugar substitute
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 C. egg substitute, room temperature
1/4 C. margarine, room temperature

2 Tbsp. water
2 packages Sweet ‘n Low
2 large egg whites
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Cooking Instructions
Yellow Cake: Place dry ingredients in mixer bowl and mix at low speed to blend well. Combine 3/4 C. water, oil, sweetener, vanilla and egg substitute, and mix with fork to blend. Add margarine to flour mixture along with liquid mixture, and mix with a spoon, only until well blended. Spread evenly in a 9-inch square pan, which has been greased with margarine. Bake 30 to 35 minutes at 375 degrees F., or until cake tester comes out clean and the cake pulls away from the sides of the pan. Cool to room temperature and cut into equal servings. Fluffy Frosting: Combine sugar, water, Sweet ‘n Low, egg whites, and cream of tartar in top of a double boiler, and beat at high speed for 1 minute. Set over simmering water in the bottom of the double boiler. Continue to beat at high speed for 4 to 5 minutes, or until soft peaks form. Remove from heat. Add vanilla to frosting and continue to beat at high speed 1 to 2 minutes, or until thick enough to spread on a cooled cake (enough frosting for a two-layer or 9-inch square cake).
