Cocoa Angel Food Cake

By: Lorraine Olson

"'This delicious chocolaty cake is so simple, I've made it hundreds of times,' writes Lorraine Olson of Madison, Minnesota. 'I never frost it. Instead I serve it with whipped topping, ice cream or sometimes even plain. The recipe won first prize at our county fair.'"
