How to Make Chocolate Filled Angel Food Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until glossy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and cream of tartar.
  4. Gently fold dry ingredients into egg whites in three additions.
  5. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. In a separate bowl, prepare the chocolate filling: Whisk together melted chocolate, butter, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  7. Invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once the cake is completely cool, carefully slice it horizontally in half.
  9. Spread chocolate filling evenly over the bottom layer of the cake.
  10. Top with the second layer of cake.
  11. Dust with powdered sugar or cocoa powder, and slice and serve.
