Boredom Baking

Angel Food Cake 
It was my first attempt at making one of these.  Apparently, if you're going to eat cake, this is the way to go.  It only has 160 calories in a slice and 0 fat.  However, I thought that it was a little too sweet.  I prefer the challenge of not screwing it up to actually eating the finished product.  Luckily, my husband is a trash compactor.  

The most fun part was using my KitchenAid Mixer to turn 12 egg whites into the perfect "peaks." 

I LOOOOVVEEE that mixer. 


My BFF Betty Crocker says that if you whip the egg whites too much, the cake will be dry.  Luckily, I found the happy medium.  The cake was very moist without being runny. HOWEVER, it was way too sweet.  
Again, my husband, the trash compactor saved the day.

I think my next challenge will be attempting to make red velvet cake -- my past attempts have been a little dry. :(
