Angel Cake
Serves: 8
Ready in: 60 mins +

Ingredients:
2 teaspoons vegetable oil75g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
50g caster sugar
10 tbsp Splenda granulated sweetener
8 free-range egg whites
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
50g dried skimmed milk powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pulp of 2 passionfruit
a handful of raspberries
[hd]for the frosting[/hd]
250g mascarpone cheese
300ml double cream
2 tbsp Limoncello or other citrus liqueur
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 teaspoon Splenda granulated sweetener
method:
- Preheat the oven to 160C/325F/Gas 3. Brush a 1.5 litre kugelhopf or ring tin with the oil and coat with flour, tapping out the excess. Mix together the caster sugar and sweetener.
- Whisk the egg whites in a thoroughly clean bowl until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and whisk again until stiff. Gradually whisk in the caster sugar and sweetener, a spoonful at a time. Stir in the milk powder and vanilla extract. Sift a thin layer of flour over the whisked mixture and fold in using a large metal spoon. Continue to sift and fold in the rest of the flour.
- Turn the mixture into the tin and level the surface. Bake for 20-25 minutes until firm to the touch. Loosen the edges of the mould with a knife and invert onto a wire rack. Leave to cool with the tin still in position. (If the cake has risen well above the top of the tin, cut a little off but bear in mind that the cake will shrink back as it cools.) Once cool, transfer to a plate.
- To make the frosting, beat the mascarpone in a bowl until softened. Add the cream, liqueur, lemon juice and sweetener and whisk until smooth. Using a palette knife, spread the cream mixture over the cake, swirling it decoratively with the tip of the knife. Scatter the fruits over the top of the cake to finish.
