CONTEST-WINNING CHOCOLATE ANGEL FOOD CAKE



Contest-Winning Chocolate Angel Food Cake image

When I take this different kind of angel food cake to church bake sales, it goes before I can get it on the table! I've always enjoyed cooking, especially baking. My other hobbies are embroidery, counted cross-stitch and taking care of my flowers and garden (I love to can). My husband and I are retired to our farm home; we have three sons, all grown, and four grandchildren.
