Instructions

1In a large bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 5 minutes.
2Gradually add the egg yolks to the creamed butter and sugar mixture, mixing until well combined.
3In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Add half of the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined. Then, add the milk, mixing until combined. Finally, add the remaining flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
4Stir in the cinnamon. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the stiffly beaten egg whites into the batter.
5Gently toss the huckleberries with 2 tablespoons of flour to coat them. This will help prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
6Gently fold the floured huckleberries into the cake batter. Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
