List of Ingredients
1 Cup Cake Flour
1 Cup Confectioners' Sugar
1 1/2 Cups Egg Whites (About 12)
1 Teaspoon Cream Of Tartar
Pinch Salt
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 1/4 Cups Sugar
FROSTING:
1 Plain Milk Chocolate Candy Bar (7 Ounces)
2 Cups Whipping Cream
3 Tablespoons Confectioners' Sugar
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Chocolate Shavings (Optional)Recipe
Sift flour and confectioners' sugar together twice; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, until stiff peaks form, scraping bowl occasionally. Gradually fold in flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time. Pour into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes or until lightly browned and entire top appears dry. Immediately invert cake pan onto a wire rack; cool completely, about 1 hour. For frosting, melt the candy bar in a microwave or double boiler; cool for 5 minutes. In a mixing bowl, beat cream and sugar until stiff peaks form; stir in vanilla. Fold in melted chocolate. Run a knife around sides of cake and remove to a serving plate; frost top and sides. Garnish with chocolate shavings if desired. Store in the refrigerator. Yields 12 to 16 servings.
