dispatches from the world's smallest, sweetest kitchen

No tricks, just really, really tasty.

It was my friend Noeleen's birthday yesterday, and she loves angel food cake, so I made this for her:

It may not be anything too pretty to look at, and it certainly doesn't resemble a cute woodland critter, or involve some fun word play.  It's just angel food cake (recipe courtesy of M-Stew), raspberry coulis (my mom's recipe), lemon curd (via Baking Bites), and whipped cream, aka THE GREATEST COMBINATION EVER.  Once again my kitchenaid stand mixer has earned its keep, allowing me to lounge on the couch, while it whipped the egg whites into the frothy basis of this cake. This cake makes me wish Noeleen had a birthday once a month. Make this for someone you love ASAP.
