How to Make Low Fat Strawberry Angel Food Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar and 1/2 cup cake flour. Set aside.
  3. In a large, clean, grease-free bowl, beat 12 large egg whites with 1 teaspoon cream of tartar using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  4. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon almond extract, and a pinch of salt with the last addition of sugar.
  5. Gently fold in the powdered sugar-flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  6. Carefully pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch angel food cake pan.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Invert the pan immediately onto a wire rack and let the cake cool completely.
  9. While the cake cools, prepare the strawberry topping:
  10. In a medium bowl, gently mix 1 (8 ounce) package of softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  11. Fold in 2 cups of cubed angel food cake until evenly coated.
  12. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled cake.
  13. Top with 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries.
