Angel Food Cake
Ingredients
Scale
1 c. flour
1 c. powdered sugar
12 egg whites (grandma would save the yolks to make homemade noodles)
1 t. cream of tartar
Pinch of salt
1 t. vanilla
Instructions
Sift flour and confectioner’s sugar together twice; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Add vanilla. Gradually beat in sugar, about 2 T. at a time, until stiff peaks form, scraping bowl occasionally. Gradually fold in flour mixture, about ½ cup at a time. Pour into an ungreased 10’ tube pan.
Bake at 325 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until lightly browned and entire top appears dry. Immediately invert cake pan onto a soda pop bottle; cool completely, about 1 hour.
Serve with warmed Carmel sauce.
