Chocolate Cinnamon Angel Food Cake

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 c Egg whites (10-12 eggs)
• 1 c Sifted flour
• 1 1/2 c Sifted confectioners sugar
• 3 tb Unsweetened cocoa
• 1/2 ts Cinnamon
• 1 1/2 ts Cream of tartar

Instructions:

Bring egg whites to room temperature, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, sift
flour, cocoa, powdered sugar, and cinnamon together three times. Set
aside. In a large mixer bowl, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and
vanilla with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Gradually add the sugar, 2 Tablespoons at a time, beating on high
speed until stiff peaks form. Transfer to a larger bowl if needed. Sift
about 1/4th of the flour mixture over the beaten egg whites. Fold in
gently. Repeat, folding in the remaining flour mixture in fourths. Pour
into ungreased 10 inch tube pan. Bake on the lowest rack in the oven
at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until the top springs back when
touched. Immediately invert cake (leave in pan); cool thoroughly.
Loosen sides of cake from pan; remove.
