bowl occasionally.

Sprinkle cornstarch mixture over egg mixture and gently fold it in.

Gently fold in margarine in a thin stream. Transfer imme- diately to
the cake pan.

Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into
center of cake comes out clean. Carefully turn cake out onto a rack.
