How do I ensure my angel cake rises well?

To ensure a good rise, start with fresh egg whites and make sure to whip them to stiff peaks. Also, avoid greasing the cake pan, as this helps the cake cling to the sides while it rises.

Can I replace the chocolate filling?

Absolutely! You can substitute different fillings such as caramel sauce or fruit preserves to add unique flavors. Just make sure it is thick enough to stay in the center of the cake.

How do I store my First Snow Lava Angel Cake?

Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to a week. Be sure to let it warm up a bit before serving for best texture.

Can I make this cake ahead of time?

Yes! You can prepare the cake a day before and fill it with chocolate ganache before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

What can I serve with the First Snow Lava Angel Cake?

This cake pairs wonderfully with vanilla ice cream, fresh fruits like berries, or whipped cream for an extra layer of indulgence.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg whites and cream of tartar. Whip them together until soft peaks begin to form, then gradually add sugar while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold in the flour until just combined.
Pour the batter into an ungreased angel food cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown. Cool upside down on a rack.
For the chocolate lava filling, heat heavy cream until simmering, then stir in chocolate chips until smooth. Create a well in the cooled cake and pour in the warm chocolate filling.
Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh fruit, if desired.

Notes

This cake is best served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container for freshness.
