Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cake flour (i use softsilk or swansdown brands)
  • 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups egg whites
  • 1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2-1 tsp almond extract

Directions:

  1. .Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Stir together cake flour and confectioner's sugar; set aside.
  3. In a large mixer bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt until foamy.
  4. Add the granular sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating at high speed until the meringue holds stiff peaks. (This takes up to 10 minutes.).
  5. Gently fold in the extracts by hand.
  6. Sprinkle the flour-confectioner's sugar mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, over the meringue, folding it in gently just until flour-sugar mixture disappears. DO NOT OVER-MIX OR CAKE WILL BECOME TOUGH!
  7. Push batter into ungreased tube pan, turning it several times to fill pan evenly. Gently cut through the batter with a knife to remove air bubbles.
  8. Bake 30-35 minutes or until the top springs back when touched lightly with finger.
  9. Remove from oven and immediately invert the tube over weighted glass bottle; let hang upside down until cake is completely cool (about 2 hours.).
  10. To remove cooled cake from tube pan, loosen first by moving table knife up and down against side of pan. Next, turn the pan over and hit one side; the cake will slip out onto the platter.
