Ingredients

• 12 large Egg whites (room temperature)
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Cake flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Cream of tartar
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Heath bars (chopped into small pieces)
• 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for frosting)
• 0.5 cup Additional Heath bar pieces (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Ensure your angel food cake pan is clean and ungreased.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form.

Step 3

Gradually add the granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating continuously on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form.

Step 4

Gently fold in the vanilla extract using a spatula.

Step 5

Sift the cake flour over the egg white mixture in small batches, folding carefully after each addition to maintain the airiness of the batter.

Step 6

Once the flour is fully incorporated, gently fold in the chopped Heath bar pieces until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the ungreased angel food cake pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake for 35 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Immediately invert the pan onto a bottle neck or cooling rack and let the cake cool completely before removing from the pan.

Step 10

While the cake cools, prepare the chocolate whipped cream frosting. In a chilled mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract.

Step 11

Beat the mixture on medium speed until soft peaks form, then increase to high speed and beat until firm peaks form. Do not overbeat.

Step 12

Once the cake is completely cool, carefully remove it from the pan and place it on a serving plate.

Step 13

Frost the cake with the chocolate whipped cream, spreading it evenly over the top and sides.

Step 14

Sprinkle additional Heath bar pieces over the frosted cake for garnish.

Step 15

Refrigerate the cake for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set. Slice and enjoy!
