1 1/2
cups egg whites (10 to 12 large)
-
1 1/2
cups sifted powdered sugar
-
3/4
cup sifted cake flour or sifted all-purpose flour
-
1/4
cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-
1 1/2
teaspoons cream of tartar
-
1
cup granulated sugar
-
1
tablespoon instant coffee granules
-
1/3
cup cold fat-free milk
-
1
1.3 ounce envelope whipped dessert topping mix
-
1/2
cup vanilla low-fat yogurt
-
Chocolate curls or 1/2 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder (optional)
1. Place egg whites in a large mixing bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Line a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with waxed paper; set aside.
2. Sift powdered sugar, flour, and 1/4 cup cocoa powder together 3 times. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer on medium to high speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add granulated sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until soft peaks form (tips stand straight). Sift about one-fourth of the flour mixture over beaten egg whites; fold in gently. Repeat sifting and folding in the remaining flour mixture three more times, using one-fourth of the flour mixture each time. Spread batter in prepared pan.
3. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 23 to 25 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Loosen edges. Immediately invert cake onto a large wire rack; remove pan. Carefully peel off waxed paper. Cool thoroughly.
4. For filling, in bowl dissolve coffee granules in milk; add topping mix. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until combined. Then beat on high speed until mixture form stiff peaks (4 to 5 minutes). Fold in yogurt.
5. To assemble, trim edges from cake. Cut cake crosswise into thirds. Place one cake layer on serving platter; spread with about one-third of the filling. Repeat two more times. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or until serving time. Garnish top with chocolate curls or sift cocoa powder over cake, if desired. Makes 10 servings.

I made this for family and a visiting friend and they all loved it. I did make it a little different in that I used whipped cream instead of the topping mix (a little over 1 c whipped cream with same amount of coffee granules & 3-4 T. sugar). The cake came out light in texture although also very light in flavor. But, when you added the coffee whipped topping, it came together with a nice overall flavor. It was even better the next day.
