ANGEL FOOD DELIGHT



Angel Food Delight image

I found this in a magazine, I believe it was "Quick & Easy" while waiting for an appointment. Unfortunately, I do not remember what they called it so I have just called it Angel Food Delight. It sounded too easy to be true but it was wonderful. The original recipe said to chill for an hour but I found it took longer for the flavors to merge. I liked the adaptability of using different toppings. The recipe called for 2 cans of Pie Filling but I found 1 to be sufficient. However, use your own judgement. While the flavor is rich, it is not a heavy dessert and everyone has loved it.

ANGEL'S DELIGHT



Angel's Delight image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     project, dessert

Time 30m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup water
8 small fresh strawberries, hulled
Butter and granulated sugar for molds
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, preferably Valrhona, coarsely chopped (see note above)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons cocoa
4 egg whites
3 tablespoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • To make the angel hair, combine sugar, corn syrup and water in a medium saucepan. Place over high heat and cook, swirling pan occasionally, until the mixture reaches 305 degrees on a candy thermometer. Immediately remove from heat and plunge the bottom of the pan into cold water. Let stand until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Place a large sheet of parchment paper on a work surface. Hold 2 forks in 1 hand and dip the tines into the syrup. Rapidly wave the forks back and forth over the parchment paper, letting the thin, fine strands fall on the paper. Repeat with remaining syrup. Set aside.
  • Thinly slice the strawberries. Either use a small heart-shaped cutter to cut hearts out of strawberry slices or trim them into heart shapes with a small knife. Set aside.
  • To make the cake, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter 4 1-cup ramekins and coat with sugar. Set aside. Place chocolate, butter and salt in a double boiler. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until melted. Remove from heat, add cocoa and whisk until smooth. In separate bowl, whip egg whites on medium speed until foamy. Add sugar, turn speed to high and whip to stiff peaks. Very gently fold chocolate into egg whites. Spoon the mixture into the molds until they are 3/4 full (this may not take all of the batter). Bake until puffed and browned but still liquid in the center, about 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Run a small knife inside the rim of the molds to loosen. Invert the cakes onto the center of each of 4 plates. Wrap some of the angel hair around each of the cakes. Scatter a few of the strawberry hearts over the angel hair. Serve immediately.
