Does anyone have a sheet cake, angel food cake recipe?

My father's birthday is this month, as he's diabetic I'm trying to make a cake that's a bit better for him than the traditional birthday cake.



What I'd like to do is make a single sheet, 9x9 angel food sheet cake and frost it with a raspberry whipped cream frosting. (yeah, real healthy, I know)



The problem I'm having is every recipe I find for angel food cake needs to be baked in a tube pan. Does anyone have a recipe to bake it in a square (or round) cake pan?



I don't need answers like "Make it as normal and put it in a flat pan" unless you know for a FACT that due to the cooking tendencies of angel food cake, it won't be burned on the edges and raw in the center.Does anyone have a sheet cake, angel food cake recipe?

Instead of using an angel food cake recipe, try a jelly roll cake recipe, which is baked flat in a 10x15" pan with higher sides than a normal cookie sheet pan. I've used the recipe in the Betty Crocker Cookbook with huge success.



Substitute some or all of the sugar with Splenda. Line the greased pan with parchment or waxed paper dusted with Splenda powdered sugar, and turn out the cake onto a large thin kitchen towel a minute after you take it from the oven.

Roll the cake up carefully with the towel and let it cool, so it holds the curled shape. Unroll the cake carefully and spread it with the raspberry whipped cream frosting.

Reviewed on Aug. 21, 2006 by chellebelle I scaled this to half using 2 cups of all purpose flour and put it in a jelly roll size pan lined with parchment paper (to make it easy to remove from the pan). I read another similar recipe that cooked at 400 degrees and since several reviwers said the cooking time indicated wasn't enough, I used the higer temperature. For my smaller batch, 15 minutes at 400 degrees worked perfectly. This is the oddest recipe ever but it really works, though you'll have your doubts when pouring boiling water into the flour mixture. The cake is just a bit heavier than traditional angel food, but that was good for my purposes, I wanted to make a rolled cake. I turned the very warm cake onto a tea towel dusted with powdered sugar and rolled it up till cool, then unrolled and filled with lemon filling. Frosted with whipped cream it was a very light and tasty dessert.

Reviewed on Dec. 22, 2003 by LESBESQUET Great cake. I had trouble with the size of the recipe fitting my bowls! I had to bake it in 2 9"x13" pans. From now on, I'll make 1/2 the recipe.

Reviewed on Jul. 2, 2005 by Jenn I drove to three different grocery stores today looking for an angel food sheetcake.. and it turns out it was MUCH easier to make one with this recipe. It was amazingly easy to make and came out wonderfully. After reading the other reviews that said the recipe made a LOT of cake, I decided to halve everything and use a 9x13 pan. It worked perfectly, and I would definitely recommend this to anyone!
