1 cup minus 2 tablespoons cake flour
1 1/2 cups superfine granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups egg whites (about 10 large egg whites) at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
powdered sugar for dusting
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Sift the flour twice with the cocoa powder and 1/2 cup of the sugar.
3. With an electric mixer on high speed, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form when the mixer is removed from the batter.
4. Add half of the remaining sugar and beat for 1 minute. Add the remaining sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating after each addition.
5. Stir in the vanilla.
6. Fold the flour and sugar mixture into the egg whites, 1/4 cup at a time, until just incorporated.
7. Put the batter in an ungreased 10" tube pan and bake until the cake is light golden brown and springy to the touch, about 1 hour. Invert the pan and let the cake cool completely before removing from the pan.
8. Once the cake is completely cool, place a doily on top of the cake and dust it with powdered sugar. Remove the doily and a beautiful design of powdered sugar will remain.
