  • 1 stick unsalted butter (about ½ cup)
  • ½ cup sugar

  4. Add processed corn to the butter mixture, with the baking powder and flour.
  5. Meanwhile, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form and fold them very gently into the corn-butter mixture.
  6. Scrape the batter in the pan and bake for 45 minutes or until the cake is lightly golden and firm.
