Ingredients and Weight:
- Angel food cake mix (1 box, 15.25 ounces)
- Egg whites (4 large)
- Cream of tartar (1/2 teaspoon)
- Sugar (1 cup)
- Salt (pinch)
- Strawberries (1 pound, hulled and sliced)
- Whipped cream (2 cups)
- Chocolate chips (1/2 cup)
Preparation Time:
15 minutes
Cooking Time:
45 minutes
Difficulty Level:
2 (Easy)
Preparation Method Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 egg white, cream of tartar, sugar, and salt. Beat for 2 minutes with an electric mixer.
- In a separate bowl, beat the remaining 3 egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the cake batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To frost the cake, cut a 3-inch circle out of the top of the cake. Remove a 1-inch-wide strip of cake from the center of the tunnel, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick wall around the edges.
- Fill the tunnel with strawberries and whipped cream. Replace the top of the cake and frost the entire cake with whipped cream.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the frosting.

Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will help to create a light and fluffy cake.
- Do not overfill the bundt pan, as the cake will rise during baking.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
