Ingredients: 9
large
Egg whites 1
teaspoon
Cream of tartar 1
tablespoon
Vanilla extract 1/2
cup
Granulated sugar 1
cup
Sifted cake flour,
plus 2 tablespoons
1
teaspoon
Baking powder 4 1/2
cups
Sliced strawberries 3/4
cup
Cool Whip Lite
Directions: 1.
Preheat oven to 325F.
2.
In large bowl, with electric mixer on high speed, beat egg whites until foamy; add cream of tartar and vanilla. Gradually beat in 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons sugar until stiff peaks form (about 10 minutes).
3.
Gradually sift cake flour and baking powder over egg white mixture; carefully fold in until no white streaks remain.
4.
Spoon evenly into a 9" tube pan. Bake 35-40 minutes, or until cake springs back when lightly touched with fingertip. Invert immediately and let cool completely. (If pan does not have "feet", invert over a sturdy bottle.) When cake has cooled, carefully loosen edges and remove from pan.
5.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine strawberries with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; set aside for 15 minutes.
6.
To serve, cut cake into 12 pieces with serrated knife. Place on serving plates. Top each with equal amounts of strawberries with accumulated juice and 1 tablespoon whipped topping.
