This recipe was unavailable to view for a while and after contacting ToH they got it back up for me. I prefer recipes from scratch, but this is quick - why it was first published in Quick Cooking. Just in case there are those that have never made an angel food cake before - it is best to have a designated tube pan for only angel food cakes as they will not rise properly if the sides of the pan have any grease/oil/butter. For those that haven't seen it the chocolate angel food cake recipe sent out June 9/2011 under the heading Father's Day Favorites is a good comparison - from scratch - and a number of useful comments are with it now.Regi from north of Huntsville, Ontario, Canada

Directions are unclear are you supposed to mix up the angel food cake according to the box instructions and then add the cocoa and boiling water? Can someone help?Baker mom

Mine fell flat too. I've thought about it and couldn't figure a reason for it. I threw it away because it looked so unappetizing. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Did anyone have trouble getting the cake to rise when cooking? Mine only came up about 3 in. and then fell. Could it be the cake mix or adding the cocoa?Chris Ont.

I am a confirmed chocoholic, but next time I would decrease the amount of cocoa in the recipe. It's really intense chocolate!
