- 12 large egg whites, room temperature
- 1 ½ teaspoons cream of tartar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Ensure your oven rack is in the lower third of the oven.
- In a food processor, pulse the cake flour and ¾ cup of sugar until finely combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until foamy. Add cream of tartar and salt, then beat until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the remaining sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract while continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold in the flour mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Spoon the batter into an ungreased tube pan and smooth the top.
