Ingredients

5 large eggs
2 1/8 cups powdered sugar
8 7/8 ounces flour, all-purpose
5/8 cups vegetable oil
5/8 cups water hot
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if desired
1 tablespoon cocoa powder

Directions

Separate egg whites from yolks.

Set the whites aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix yolks with sugar.

Add slowly oil, then hot water.

Mix in flour and backing powder.

Beat egg whites alone in another bowl until they expand about 3 to 4 times, use an electric mixer on high speed for this.

Add these egg whites to the batter.

Mix by hand. Add vanilla if desired.

Pour half into greased round angel-cake pan.

Mix the cocoa into the remaining half and pour on top of the first layer in the pan.

Don't mix together.

Bake for 45 minutes.

Check with toothpick (toothpick will not have mixture on it if the cake is done) by poking it into the cake.

Sprinkle finished cake with powdered sugar.

My family really loves this recipe. I almost never have leftovers, and when I do there is a race to see who gets to them first.
