Best Angel Food Cake Ever--Grandma's Secret Ingredient

My elderly mother has been baking Angel Food Cakes for a long time, I had her over for a special session of baking one morning. She was shy and quiet, but we got our video made and added the special ingredient "Love" into the cake.

Angel Food Cake
1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 3/4 cups sugar -divided
1 1/2 cups egg whites
1 1/2 tsp cream of tatar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
Sift together flour and 3/4 cups sugar-twice.
Beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tatar, salt and vanilla,
Continue beating to a soft peak stage. Beat in remaining cup of sugar, a tablespoon at a time. Be careful not to overbeat. Add flour-sugar mixutre in 3 or 4 parts, gently folding in. using 12 strokes each time. Pour into Angel Food Cake Pan, cut through batter to remove large air bubbles. Bake in 375 degree oven for about 40-50 minutes. Cool before removing from pan. Recipe by Polly Dodge Holben shared with her by her husband Roy Holben's aunt Audrey Dixon Copeland Gillian, in the 1960's.

Enjoy this old recipe that has been in my family for many years.

I’m going to make this Angel Food cake this week, I had 12 egg whites left from making custard for banana pudding Sunday, My granddaughter and her husband are coming on Saturday, she just turned 28….she’s an Angel, so I’m making a suitable cake for the occasion. You and your mom making the video are angels as well, thank you Miss Rita 🌹❤️

I love angel food cake, sometimes the older recipes passed down in families are better recipes and taste better than these box mixes and even the high dollar ones...

Thanks for this recipe, gonna try it with my girls sometime

[donaldyounger]

The moment I saw your mom, I knew this angel food cake would be fantastic! Great job!

I must admit you have a special southern flavor and skill that is being lost. The Lord’s Blessings to you both.
