Thanks. The woman I talked to said there was no milk, but this still sounds good. If you have tried it, any idea what the sauce does? I have never heard of a sauce for a cake, especially not one that is baked along with the cake itself. On 2/13/11, Shannon Hannah hanna...@mts.net wrote: This

[CnD] separating eggs

Hi, Thanks for the Italian cream cake. It and some other recipes call for separated eggs. How is this done? I know it is removing the white from the yolk, but how does one go about doing this without seeing the egg? I am not even sure how it is done if one can see the egg, come to think of it. --

I use a small funnel. break the egg into the funnel holding it over a bowl, the white will go through the funnel into the bowl and the egg yolk will stay in the funnel. You got it separated without breaking the yolk and it is ready to use. Katie You can't direct the wind, but you can

Yes it does. I always thought the white was more solid than that; good to know it will flow that easily. I assume there is nothing to be done about a broken yolk except to try another egg? On 2/13/11, Cheryl Osborn chapalache...@gmail.com wrote: One method is to start with fresh eggs, the yolks
