Ingredients and Weight:

• Cake flour, 1 cup (120g)
• Granulated sugar, 1 1/2 cups (300g)
• Salt, 1/4 teaspoon
• Egg whites, 12 large (1 1/2 cups)
• Honey, 1/2 cup (100g)
• Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon
• Cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon

Preparation Time:

• 30 minutes

Cooking Time:

• 35-40 minutes

Difficulty Level:

• 3

Preparation Method Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch angel food cake pan with a removable bottom.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on low speed until foamy. Add the honey and vanilla extract and continue beating on low speed. Once the mixture is completely combined, turn the mixer up to high speed and beat until stiff peaks form.
4. Add the cream of tartar and continue beating until the egg whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg whites, folding them in gently until just combined.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Special Precautions and Tips:

• Make sure to use a clean bowl and beaters when whipping the egg whites. Any grease or residue can prevent the egg whites from whipping properly.
• Don't overbeat the egg whites. If they are overbeaten, they will become dry and crumbly.
• Be gentle when folding the dry ingredients into the egg whites. Overmixing can deflate the batter and result in a dense cake.
• Invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
