Wash beaters thoroughly. In a small mixer bowl, beat egg whites til stiff peaks form. Stir about 1/3 of the whites into the cake batter to lighten. Fold in remaining whites. Pour batter evenly into 3 greased and floured 8-inch cake pans. Bake in a 350* oven for 25-30 min. or til a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 min.; remove from pans. Cool layers thoroughly on wire racks. When cool, spread the top of one cake layer with Cream Cheese Pecan Frosting. Top with another layer, frost, and top with the last layer. Frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. If desired, decorate cake with edible flowers or pecan halves. Keep cake chilled until serving time. Store any leftover cake, covered, in refrigerator for up to 2 days. Makes 14 servings. Potluck tips: For easier toting, substitute a 13x9x2 pan for the three 8-inch pans. Bake 35-40 min. or til done.
