   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/4  cup           unsweetened cocoa powder
      1/4  cup           hot water
    1 1/2  cups          granulated sugar -- divided
      3/4  cup           cake flour
      1/4  teaspoon      salt
   12                    egg whites
    1      teaspoon      cream of tartar
                         raspberries and nectarine slices -- for garnish
 
 1 Preheat oven to 350° F. In a medium bowl, combine cocoa and hot water.
 Mix well; cool.  In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup of sugar, flour, and salt.
 Mix well; set aside.
 
 2 In a large mixing bowl, using an  electric mixer set on high speed, beat
 egg whites until foamy.  Add cream of tartar; continue beating until soft
 peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.
 
 3.  Sift half of flour mixture over egg white mixture; fold gently until
 combined. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture. Stir 1 cup of egg white
 mixture into cocoa
 mixture. Gently but thoroughly fold cocoa mixture into remaining egg white
 mixture until combined.
 
 4.  Spoon the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.  Run a small knife
 through batter to remove air pockets. Bake until springy to the touch and a
 toothpick inserted near center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
 
 5. Invert pan and place center tube over the neck of a bottle.  Cool
 completely.  Using a knife, loosen cake edges.  Invert the cake onto a
 serving plate; garnish with raspberries and nectarine slices.
