1 1/2 teaspoons
cream of tartar 1
1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups (12) egg whites
Sift flour with 3/4 cup sugar 2 times; set aside. Beat egg
whites with cream of tartar and salt until frothy. Add remaining
3/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, continuing to beat until whites
hold stiff peaks. Fold in Vanilla. Sift flour mixture (1/4

mixture disappears. With a spatula, push batter into 10 inch
ungreased angel food cake pan. Bake 350 for 35 to 40
minutes. Invert cake in pan; cool.
For the creative person, there is Egg Art. It’s art done with

Days. A minimum of three eggs are required. Another way to
express your creative flare is dyeing a hard boil egg. There’s a
division in both Egg Art and Hard Boiled Egg Art for adults and
