As mentioned in my Blog yesterday on "25 slim eating tips", here's the cake recipe for the 14th tips......... Ought to give it a try one day. Happy baking friends.........
Angel Food Cake
1 cup sifted cake flour
1 1/2 cups sifted icing sugar
1 1/2 cup egg whites (from 10 to 12 large eggs; room temperature)
1 1/2 tsps. cream of tartar
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup caster sugar
Sift flour and icing sugar together. Beat egg whites, cream of tartar and vanilla with an electric mixer till soft peaks form (tips curl). Add 2 tbsps of caster sugar at a time and continue mixing till stiff peaks form. Fold in icing sugar mix, a quarter cup at a time, with a wooden spoon. Pour into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Bake for 40 minutes in a 180 degree celcius oven. Cake is done when the top springs back when lightly touched. Remove from oven and immediately invert the pan for it to cool (cake still inside). Serve with fruit cocktail or strawberry preserves.
