Snow Cakes

2 cups sugar
¹⁄₂ cup butter
1 cup sweet milk
3 cups flour
3 tea-spoons baking powder
Whites of five eggs

Cream the butter. Add the sugar and beat well. Then add the flour, in which the baking powder should be mixed, and the milk. Beat for ten minutes. Whisk the whites to a stiff froth, and stir in lightly. Bake in square tins. When quite cold, cut off all the brown outside and divide into pieces about two inches square. Take each piece on a fork and ice and roll in finely grated cocoanut.
