Best Angel Food Pen Wheels Recipes

LEMON ANGEL FOOD CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 10x15x1 baking sheet with parchment paper and very lightly spray the sides with a non-stick cooking spray.
• Prepare the angel food cake mix according to the instructions on the box.
• Pour the prepared cake batter onto the baking sheet. It will fill up good and that's normal. Bake the cake for 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown. The cake will rise in the oven. Take it out and let it cool for 5 minutes and the top will come back down.
• Lay a tea towel out and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Take a knife and separate the cake from the baking sheet around the edges and flip it over onto the dusted towel. The parchment paper will be stuck to the bottom of the cake. Carefully remove the parchment paper.
• Starting at the short end of the tea towel, tightly roll up the cake and allow it to completely cool on a wire rack, or however you can let it cool.
• Prepare the filling now by mixing together the lemon curd and pudding mix in a large bowl. Fold in the whipped topping.
• When the cake is cooled completely, carefully unwrap it from the towel. Spread the filling mixture all over the cake about 1/2-inch thick from the edges to give the filling room to spread when it's rolled. Tightly roll the cake back up without the towel, cover it, and place the cake into the freezer to set.
• Once set the way you like it, slice off the ends for a pretty appearance and keep slicing for you, your family, or your guests. ENJOY!

ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lower middle position and preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
• In a food processor or blender, pulse the sugar until fine and powdery. Remove 1 cup and set aside to use in step 3; keep the rest inside the food processor. Add the cake flour and salt to the food processor. Pulse 5-10 times until sugar/flour/salt mixture is aerated and light.
• In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip egg whites and cream of tartar together on medium-low until foamy, about 1 minute. Switch to medium-high and slowly add the 1 cup of sugar you set aside. Whip until soft peaks form, about 5-6 minutes. See photo and video above for a visual. Add the vanilla extract, then beat just until incorporated.
• In 3 additions, slowly sift the flour mixture into the egg white mixture using a fine mesh strainer, gently folding with a rubber spatula after each addition. To avoid deflating or a dense cake, don't add the flour mixture all at once. Sift and very slowly fold in several additions. This is important! Pour and spread batter into an ungreased 9 or 10 inch tube pan. Shimmy the pan on the counter to smooth down the surface.
• Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 40-45 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through baking. The cake will rise up very tall while baking. Remove from the oven, then cool the cake completely upside-down set on a wire rack, about 3 hours. (Upside-down so the bottom of the tube pan is right-side up, see photo and video above.) Once cooled, run a thin knife around the edges and gently tap the pan on the counter until the cake releases.
• If desired, dust with confectioners' sugar. Slice the cake with a sharp serrated knife. Regular knives can easily squish the cake. Serve with whipped cream and fresh berries.
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
