4. Spread into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x … pan (the rest of the directions are cut off on the scan).

Notes

Part of the card is cut off or missing: The directions run off the bottom edge of the scan after “Spread into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x”. The rest of the method (topping, oven temperature, bake time) is missing, and the next scan (38, Applesauce Cake) doesn’t continue it.
