The ultimate sponge cake, angel food cake is the perfect sunny weather dessert because it’s so airy and refreshing. (There’s no fat at all.) If you use a box mix as your base for the roll, it’s also incredibly simple to put together – no fretting about over-beating the egg whites or having too heavy a hand with the flour, or trying to figure out what to do with all those leftover yolks.

Plus, it calls for just 15 minutes of baking time, so you won’t even heat up the kitchen.
