CHOCOLATE DELIGHT ANGELFOOD CAKE
THIS IS A DELICIOUS AND WONDERFUL ANGELFOOD CAKE. I FOUND THIS DELICIOUS ANGELFOOD CAKE ON 1ST TRAVELER'S CHOICE INTERNET COOKBOOK.
List of Ingredients
- 12 LARGE EGG WHITES
- 3/4 CUP CAKE FLOUR
- 1 TEASPOON VANILLA EXTRACT
- 1 TEASPOON CREAM OF TARTAR
- 1 1/4 CUP SUGR
- 1/4 TEASPOON SALT
- 1/4 CUP COCOA POWDER
- 1/4 CUP CHOCOLATE SYRUP
Instructions
- PREHEAT OVEN TO 325°
- BEAT EGG WHITES IN A LARGE BOWL FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE ADDING THE CREAM OF TARTAR. BEAT UNTIL EGG WHITES STAND IN STIFF PEAKS.
- COMBINE THE SUGAR AND SALT ( IF USING GRANULATED SUGAR, INSTEAD OF SUPERFINE SUGAR, SIFT IT TWICE). SLOWLY ADD THE SUGAR TO THE BEATEN EGG WHITES AND VANILLA. CONTINUE BEATING UNTIL PEAKS ARE NOT ONLY STIFF BUT SHINY.
- SIFT FLOUR AND THE COCOA POWDER TOGETHER AND FOLD INTO THE MIXTURE ( TRY NOT TO DEFLATE THE EGG WHITE, DO THIS IN A UNDER AND OVER MOTION WITH A RUBBER SPATULA).
- SPOON INTO AN UNGREASED 10" ANGELFOOD CAKE PAN. WHILE DOING THIS BE SURE THERE ARE NO AIR BUBBLES AND PUSH THE MIXTURE INTO THE SIDES AROUND THE PAN. WHEN ABOUT 1/3 FULL DRIZZLE THE CHOCOLATE SAUCEOVER THE SURFACE. USING A RUBBER SPATULA, PLUNGE ABOUT 3 TIMES INTO THE BATTER TO ACHIEVE A MARBLED EFFECT. ADD 1/3 MORE BATTER AND REPEAT THE STEP, PLUNGING IN DIFFERENT AREAS FROM WHERE YOU DID IT THE FIRST TIME, ADD THE REMAINING BATTER ON TOP. REMEMBER THE SYRUP WILL SETTLE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAN WHILE BAKING, DO NOT USE TOO MUCH SYRUP OR IT WILL BE IN ONE AREA.
- PUT IN OVEN ON THE MIDDLE OR LOWER RACK AND BAKE FOR 50 TO 60 MINUTES. REMOVE FROM OVEN AND TURN UPSIDE DOWN ON A STURDY BOTTLE OR THE SMALL FEET THAT ARE ON THE RIM OF THE PAN.
- PLACE ON COUNTER TO COOL.( IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE THE CAKE UPSIDE DOWN, OTHERWISE IT WILL BE HEAVY.) COOL COMPLETELY. RUN A METAL NARROW SPATULA OR A SERRATED KNIFE AROUND THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE PAN TO LOOSEN CAKE. REMEMBER TO LOOSEN THE BOTTOM OF THE CAKE WITH THE SPATULA. REMOVE FROM PAN ONTO A SERVING PLATTER AND CUT BY SLICING WITH A SERRATED KNIFE IN A SAWING MOTION.
