1 1/2 c Egg whites – (11 to 13 eggs, 1 3/4 c Sugar
-less if XL or jumbo) 1/2 ts Salt
1 ts Cream of tartar 1/2 ts Almond extract
1 1/4 c Cake flour – sifted 1 ts Vanilla
1. BEAT egg whites until frothy; add cream of tartar; continue
beating until whites peak but aren’t dry. 2. ADD flavoring. SIFT
flour, sugar and salt NINE (9) times. 3. FOLD in dry ingredients a
little at a time. 4. POUR into UNGREASED tubular cake pan. 5. BAKE
in slow oven (325F) for 1 hour. 6. REMOVE from oven; cool upside
down (I hang my angel food cake upside down over the neck of a wine
bottle to cool).
Makes one “party size” angel food cake.
Note sure where the recipe came from but this is the first angel food
cake I ever made and it came out great! (Use the egg yolks to make a
yellow cake at the same time so there is no waste.)
