COCOA ANGEL FOOD CAKE

3/4 cup cake flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided use

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sift together three times: cake flour, cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Set aside.

Sift remaining 1 cup sugar and set aside.

Whip egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar; continue beating until whites are stiff but not dry. Fold in sugar a little at a time. Fold in vanilla and almond extract.

Sift flour-cocoa mixture over batter (1/4 at a time) and fold into batter. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Invert the tube pan and let cake cool.
