Angel Food Cake

How did three weeks go by between posts?!?
I will catch up with short, but sweet posts :)

This Angel Food Cake was on the cover of Southern Living 4 years ago and I finally made it!  I had purchased the SL cookbook for 2008 and was shocked that 4 years had passed since this cake was on the April cover.  

I had never made an Angel Food Cake, but loved them growing up.  This one is a bit different, as it is made in a regular cake pan and frosted with a lemon cream cheese icing.  I only made half the recipe, and it still took about 8 egg whites.  I baked the cake in a 9x9 pan and it was a little difficult to cut since it was more dense and square than a traditional Angel Food Cake.  But, it was delicious!

After trying this cake, I want to buy an Angel Food Cake Pan (can't believe I don't have one!) and make a classic Angel Food Cake.  They are so much prettier and tastier than the ones the grocery stores sell!
