1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an ungreased angel food cake pan.
In a large mixing bowl, beat room temperature egg whites with granulated sugar until soft peaks form.
Sift flour and baking powder together; gently fold into the egg mixture without deflating the batter.
Add vanilla extract and fold in the sprinkles until evenly distributed.

Invert the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely before removing from the pan.
