An old fashioned cake like your grandma used to make that can be topped with almost anything. Yummy and delishious and perfect for Spring.
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Cream together milk, shortening, and vanilla for a few minutes with a mixer with a paddle attachment.
3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
4. Mix in flour until well incorporated (1/3 at a time).
5. Mix in egg whites until combined (do not overmix).
6. Oil your 10 in cast iron skillet and pour in batter.
7. Bake 40-45 minutes. Serve with powdered sugar and a few fresh strawberries on top. I also made a simple powdered sugar icing to finish it off.
