INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • ¾ cup cake flour
    • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 1 ½ cups white sugar
    • 3 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, grated

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🥚 12 egg whites
    • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice

  • Optional

    • confectioners' sugar for dusting

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a 9-inch tube pan with parchment paper if it doesn't have a removable bottom.

2

Sift together the flour, cocoa, and ¾ cup of the sugar. Set aside. Toss 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture with the grated chocolate.

3

In a large bowl, using a mixer at low speed, beat egg whites until foamy. Increase speed to medium, add cream of tartar and salt, and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining ¾ cup sugar until stiff peaks form. Stir in vanilla and lemon juice.

4

Fold the flour mixture gently into the beaten egg whites. Then fold in the grated chocolate. Stir until no white streaks remain.

5

Scrape batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Tap the pan lightly to remove air bubbles.

6

Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the cake springs back when touched.

7

Cool completely. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving, if desired.
