angel food cake...

angel food cake

Honestly, I just don't like the store bought angel food cake, it kinda tastes and feels like styrofoam! So I needed an easy and delicious recipe, and I found it.

Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cup cake flour
- 1 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cup egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Directions:
1. Beat egg whites until they form stiff peaks, and then add cream of tartar, vanilla, and almond extract.
2. Sift together floud, sugar and salt. repeat 5 times.
3. Gently combine the egg whites with the dry ingredients and pour into a 10inch ungreased tube pan ( one with a removable bottom is so much easier)
4. IMPORTANT: place cake pan in a COOL oven. turn the oven on and set to 325degrees.Cook for about an hour or until top is golden brown.
5. Invert cake and allow it to cool in pan. When cooled all the way, remove from pan.
6. Top with favorite fruit topping and cool whip! ENJOY!
