INGREDIENTS:
3 cups cake flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
3 cups sugar 7 large eggs, room temperature 1 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract



1 Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 F. Generously butter 12-cup angle food cake pan. Dust pan with flour; tap out excess.
2 Sift flour and salt into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Gradually add sugar, beating until mixture is well blended, about 5 minutes. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating just until combined after each addition. Using rubber spatula, fold in flour mixture alternately with cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix in vanilla.
3 Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake cake until tester inserted near center comes out clean, covering top loosely with foil if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Let cake stand 15 minutes. Cut around pan sides to loosen cake. Turn out cake onto plate. Turn cake right side up onto rack and cool completely.
