The recipe is found on the King Arthur Flour site, King Arthur Flour's Strawberry Filled Angelfood Cake .
I decided that I didn't want to separate twelve (!) eggs and eat that much cake. It sounded like a good time to go into test kitchen mode. I had wanted to experiment with making layer cakes from a batter such as this one.
The funny thing is that I forgot to write out the half batch recipe. I figured I would remember that I was doing a half batch. Did I remember? Noooooo! So I have all the dry ingredients in a ziplock labeled for baking a whole angelfood cake. Just need to get 12 egg whites together.
With fresh refrigerator jam, chocolate pudding, and whippped cream |
I wanted to do a half batch, and test it in a cake pan |
I decided to use my heating core in this direction; the heating core will mimic the angelfood cake pan |
Egg whites are almost whipped |
How the batter looks in the pan; A half recipe is just enough! |
What will I do with 6 yolks? |
When I turned the cake over, the middle core fell out. Good. |
Problems getting the cake out Next time, I grease the bottom of the pan, put parchment paper on top, then grease and flour the parchment. I learned my lesson! |
It doesn't look so bad upside down! |
It was really tasty! |
