I just got a "New and Revised" Betty Crocker Cook Book, First printing 1986, copyright 1986, 1978, and 1969 by General Mills AND I just got a republished 1950 Orginial Edition as well. We have used the Dinette Cake for YEARS as the perfect cake recipe for our family tradition of making the old favorite, Pineapple Upside Down Cake. I can’t find the Dinette cake in either edition. 
( I know it’s online, but I want to give my daughter who makes the Pineapple Upside Down Cake all the time and is KNOWN for it by now (got it from mom / me) a copy of the very edition that has the Dinette Cake in it.
to: whatever
can you tell me how you found it? Was it listed in the index? If so, how was it listed? Under? etc.

# 3 on this google page refers to a 1954 edition of BC having a recipe for dinette cake. I couldn’t verify the details because the site is not up at this time when I clicked on it.
I just checked my own Betty Crocker New Picture Cookbook which I received in 1960 as a gift. It has it but the cookbook does not have a copyright date anywhere. I also have a Betty Crocker’s Dinner for Two Cookbook copyright 1958 which has it as well.
Ans. to your add. question: BC’s Dinner for 2 Cookbook Index under Cakes subtitle dinette, p.55 subtitle for that spice, p.93 ( the spice is using the dinette recipe but adding spices).
BC New Picture Cookbook circa 1960 Index under cakes subtitle dinette p. 140. There is also a section titled CAKE so continue on in the index to CAKES ( plural). This index is hard to follow because there are so many subtitles. I also see a number of copies of BC Dinner for Two on ebay. It is a delightful and practical , little cookbook.
I have also found the cookbook that looks like my circa 1960 on Ebay and it gives 1961 as the copyright date.
