Recipe Introduction
Angel food cake is my second favorite cake of all time. The only cake I like better is fruit cake.
List of Ingredients
1 Cup Sifted Cake Flour
1 1/4 Cups Sugar
1 Cup Egg Whites (8 or 10 Eggs)
1 Teaspoon Cream Of Tarter
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
3/4 Teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 Teaspoon Almond ExtractRecipe
Sift flour and 1/4 cup sugar together 4 times. Beat egg whites, cream of tarter and salt until frothy throughout. Add remaining sugar in small amounts and beat after each addition frequently with a rotary beater. Egg whites should have fine, even texture and be stiff enough to hold a peak but, not dry. Add flavorings. Sift 1/4 of flour at a time over mixture and fold in lightly. Pour into large, ungreased tube pan; cut through batter with spatula to remove large air bubbles. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees) 45 to 60 minutes. Invert pan and let cake hang until cool. Makes 9 inch cake.
