2 1/4 c. flour
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. shortening
1/4 c. maraschino juice
3 tsp. baking powder
16 cherries
1/2 c. milk
4 egg whites

Mix sugar and shortening well; add flour and baking powder. Then add milk, cherry juice and cut cherries in small pieces. Mix well. Add beaten egg whites and nuts, if desired. Bake at 375 degrees until cake browns. Sea Foam or white frosting is delicious on this cake.
