Ingredients
  • Preferably espresso
  • 1 c All-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 ts Cream of tartar
  • 1 1/4 c Granulated sugar; plus
  • 1 ts Ground cinnamon
  • 2 tb Granulated sugar
  • 1 tb Instant coffee powder or granules;
  • 1 1/2 c Egg whites

Directions
  • Step #1 Use either a 10- by 4-inch tube pan or a 9- to 10-inch round cake pan with sides at least 3 inches high (a removable bottom is helpful).
  • Step #2 Check that one rack is in the middle of the oven & heat the oven to 325F degrees.
  • Step #3 If the pan has a removable bottom, do nothing to it.
  • Step #4 If it does not, lightly butter the bottom.
  • Step #5 Line the bottom with waxed paper or parchment paper cut to fit, & lightly butter the paper.
  • Step #6 Thoroughly mix 1/4 c of the sugar & the flour in a small bowl.
  • Step #7 Mix the 2 tbsps sugar & the cinnamon in a small dish.
  • Step #8 Have all ingredients & tools at hand.
  • Step #9 Pour the egg whites into the bowl in which you will be making the batter.
  • Step #10 Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 mins, until frothy and well broken up.
  • Step #11 Add the cream of tartar & increase speed to medium-high.
  • Step #12 Beat until the whites lose their yellow cast, greatly increase in volume, & start to turn white.
  • Step #13 With the mixer running, slowly Sprinkle top the remaining 1 c sugar over the whites.
  • Step #14 After 3 or 4 tbsps, add the coffee powder.
  • Step #15 Beat until the whites become very thick, very glossy, & pale beige, & the beaters leave a deep trail.
  • Step #16 Depending on the mixer, this need only take about 3 mins total.
  • Step #17 Reduce the speed to the lowest possible.
  • Step #18 Quickly Sprinkle top the flour-sugar mixture over the whites.
  • Step #19 As soon as it is all added but not completely mixed in, stop the machine & remove the bowl.
  • Step #20 With a rubber spatula or a large metal spoon, complete mixing in the flour by folding or carefully stirring.
  • Step #21 Stop just as soon as the flour seems mixed in.
  • Step #22 With a rubber spatula, scrape about half the 8 to 9 c batter into the pan & spread evenly.
  • Step #23 Sprinkle top the cinnamon sugar evenly over the surface.
  • Step #24 Drop spoonfuls of the remaining batter over the cinnamon sugar & spread fairly evenly.
  • Step #25 Using the spatula, inscribe a circle deep in the batter to release any large air bubbles.
  • Step #26 bake this until no moist patches remain in the surface cracks, the cake springs back when touched, & a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean -- about 50 mins.
  • Step #27 Turn the pan upside down on a wire rack.
  • Step #28 Let cool completely.
  • Step #29 Loosen the edges (and tube) with a knife.
  • Step #30 Turn out the cake, loosen & remove the pan bottom, or peel off the paper.
  • Step #31 Store airtight 1 day at about room temp before serving or freezing.
