Angel Food Cake (Video Included) #WhatsCookingWednesday

I have always been known for my baking abilities in my family. I love to bake and because of that I am often picked to bake desserts for our family get together. This week I decided to share one of my recipes that I love to make to go with fresh fruit or just eat on its own. 

The reason this Angel Food Cake has become a favourite with me is that is uses all of the egg and not just the egg whites. I find most Angel Food Cake recipes although they are good they only use the eggs whites which leaves you with yolks to deal with after you have made the cake.
