Let Me Eat Cake.....please and thank you!

In anticipation of my good friend's upcoming birthday, I felt I should make an attempt at one of her (and mine) favorite cakes. The infamous Angel Food Cake, yummmm, if I may say so myself. It's been two years, at least since I've had this delicious goodness, and until now I haven't dared to attempt baking one! What better occasion than a birthday (not that we need an occasion to eat cake, lets be clear on that! Haha) to bake up some our favorite dessert. So that I did, well right after I got off Pintrest, of course, where else would I find a fabulous recipe for Angel Food Cake?
I started out on the search for a fabulous cake recipe and came across a blog full of recipes that were just my style, easy! Salvationsisters.com is doing it right for me, simple and yummy, the important things in life! Their fabulous cake recipe is very simple, but follow it exactly! The only thing I bypassed was the food processing and instead I used a bowl, a whisk, and just a touch of good 'ol elbow grease lol Mostly because I don't own a food processor. Improvisation, it's the spice of life!.....well, you know what I mean. After the cake cools completely upside down, I plated it, and drooled. Laugh all you like, but don't judge, you'll see what I mean soon! I dressed my slice with a generous dollop of Cool Whip, and fresh blueberries. Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for eating cake plain, but who can pass up fresh berries?
As I said, this was a trial run, I won't change a thing unless Jamie disagrees with my palette, somehow I doubt that will happen lol We'll see come Monday when she puts my cake to the ultimate taste test.....if there's any left come Monday.. ;) I should note, Jamie is not a Celiac, but I am, so if I'm making cake then I want to be able to eat it! Thank goodness she's all for trying my gluten free, sugary treats!
