TURN batter iinto ungreased 10-inch angel cake tin.
BAKE at 350 degree F for 60 minutes (oven preheated), or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
INVERT and COOL cake completely in pan.
When cool, loosen edges and shake pan to remove cake.
The cake should feel be like a sponge.
Enjoy! Let me know how it goes if you get a chance to try this recipe and share your experience.

i agree with cakelady. my mom used to make chiffon cake all the time and this recipe is almost the exact same. her's had more eggs in it. it is a lot heavier than angel food cake, so you really don't need anything with it, except maybe a bit of whipped cream.
angel food cake has only the egg whites, is light as air and pure white. it is also wonderful to put slices of it on the bbq and grill slighty to carmelize the outside.

I personally like it to be plain and don't like to add glaze or other topping.
