angel food cake

Or, as the boy calls it, angel wing cake. Whatever you call it, it's a super light, sweet, tasty cake! It was my mom's birthday on Wednesday, and rather than make her one from a mix, I thought I'd go all out and make one from scratch, since it's her favourite. Just as a head's up, this recipe calls for 12 - yes, one dozen! - egg whites! Have no fear though, because I found a tasty awesome recipe that calls for 6 yolks, so it's not all going to waste, so I'll post that one next weekend. (Spoiler alert - it's creme brulée.) I adapted the recipe from this one, by Alton Brown, on the Food Network website, and it worked like a charm.
