1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup egg whites (about 4 large)
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup granulated white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch (23 cm) tube pan.

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl beat together the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla extract until creamy. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the cold water and mix until just combined. Set aside.

In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and continue to beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, and the salt and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold the beaten egg whites into the cake batter until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely.
