    List of Ingredients




    ANGEL FOOD CAKE.
    ****************
    1 1/2c. egg whites (10 12 eggs)
    1 1/2c. sifted powdered sugar
    1c. sifted cake flour or sifted all purpose flour
    1 1/2tsp. cream of tartar
    1tsp. vanilla
    1c. granulated sugar

    1.) In an extra large mixing bowl allow egg whites to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, sift powdered sugar and flour together 3 times; set aside.
    2.) Add cream of tartar and vanilla to egg whites. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tips curl.) Gradually add sugar, about 2 Tablespoons at a time, beating until stiff peaks form ( tips stand straight.)
    3.) Sift about 1/4 of the dry mixture over beaten egg whites; fold in gently. (If bowl is to full, transfer to a larger bowl.) Repeat, folding in remaining dry mixture by fourths. Pour into un-greased 10 inch tube pan. Gently cut through batter to remove any large air pockets.
    4.) Bake on the lowest rack in a 350 oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert cake (leave in pan); cool thoroughly. Loosen sides of cake from pan; remove cake.
