Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Cake Flour
  • 1/3 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 1/3 cups Granulated Sugar divided
  • 12 large Egg White room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Cream Of Tartar
  • 2 tablespoons Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Almond Extract
  • 1 tablespoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Chocolate Extract
  • Assorted Fresh Berries for serving
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Using a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder and ⅔ cup of sugar. Stir until well combined; set aside.
  • Using a countertop mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar. Beat until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually add the remaining ⅔ cup of sugar that was not mixed with the flour to the bowl. After each addition, mix on low speed until combined.
  • Add the heavy cream, almond extract and chocolate extract; mix until combined.
  • Finally, gently fold the flour-sugar mixture into the egg white mixture until it is fully absorbed. (Note: Take care not to overmix/deflate the batter at this stage.)
  • Gently spoon batter into an ungreased tube pan.
  • Bake at 350°F for 32-34 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
  • Leave cake in pan and turn upside down on a cooling rack; let cool for at least 1 hour.
  • Loosen edges of cake and carefully remove cake from pan. Serve with Vanilla Bean Whipped Cream and assorted fresh berries.
  • Combine all ingredients in small bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form.
