List of Ingredients
Makes 20 large slices
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup dutch processed cocoa
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup sour cream
1 cup sweet butter or margarine, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
6 large eggs, separated
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Recipe
Do not preheat the oven. Grease and flour a 12 cup tube pan.
Sift together the flour and cocoa. Set aside.
In a small bowl, stir the baking soda into the sour cream. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract. Alternately add the sifted dry ingredients and sour cream mixture, mixing well. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they are dry. Fold in the beaten egg whites until well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and set the oven temperature to 325º. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan.
