http://lekkerreseptevirdiejongergeslag.blogspot.com/2015/04/thunder-cake.html

Ingredients:
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. sugar
4 egg yolks (save whites)
3/4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 pt. whipped cream or Cool Whip
1 tsp. baking powder
4 tbsp. milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped walnuts

Method:
Cream butter and sugar. Add beaten egg yolks. Add flour, baking powder, salt, milk and vanilla.
Put into greased and prepared (use wax paper) layered cake pans. Spread out; it looks like very
little, but it will rise up. Beat egg whites stiff and gradually add 1 cup sugar and a pinch of
cream of tartar. Beat until peaks form. Spread over top of batter, then sprinkle with walnuts.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Turn out on cake plate, egg white side down, spread
whipped cream on top, then put second layer on top with egg white side up!
If layers stick in pans, run a knife around edge to loosen the meringue.
