~ Cappuccino Angel Food Cake ~
1 cup cake flour (not self rising)
1/2 cup plus 1 T confectioners sugar
1 2/3 cups egg whites**
(**about 12 large eggs)
4 t instant espresso coffee powder
1 1/2 t cream of tartar
1/2 t salt
1/2 plus 1/8 t ground cinnamon
1 1/2 t vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups sugar
Preheat oven to 375F.
On waxed paper, mix flour and 1/2 cup confectioners
sugar; set aside. In large bowl, with mixer at high
speed, beat egg whites, instant espresso coffee
powder, cream of tartar, salt and 1/2 teaspoon
cinnamon until soft peaks form; beat in vanilla.
Beating at high speed, sprinkle in sugar, 2
tablespoons at a time, beating mixture until
sugar completely dissolves and egg whites stand
in stiff, glossy peaks. Sift flour mixture over
egg whites, 1/3 at a time, folding in with rubber
spatula after each addition, just until flour
disappears. Spoon batter into ungreased 10 inch
tube pan. Bake cake 35 - 40 minutes, until top
springs back when lightly touched. Invert cake
in pan on funnel or bottle; cool completely in
pan. With metal spatula, carefully loosen cake
from pan; place on cake plate. In cup, mix
remaining 1 tablespoon confectioners sugar with
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon; sprinkle on top of cake.
