Ingredients:
1 cup cake flour, sifted, PLUS
1 tablespoon cake flour, sifted

2 teaspoons sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
5 egg whites, at room temperature
1 teaspoon powdered sugar, sifted
1 3/4 cup strawberries, thinly sliced
chocolate sauce
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 15 x 10-inch jelly roll pan with aluminum foil, allowing foil to extend beyond ends of pan. Coat foil with nonstick cooking spray; dust with 1 tablespoon flour and set aside.
Combine 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl; stir well. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
Combine water, oil and vanilla; add to dry ingredients, stirring until blended. Set aside.
Beat egg whites in a large bowl until foamy. Add 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of egg white mixture into chocolate mixture. Carefully fold in remaining egg whites and 1/4 cup flour.
Spoon batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly to the sides of the pan. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 30 minutes.
Invert pan onto a baking sheet; remove pan, and carefully peel foil away from cake. Cut cake into 28 hearts, using a 2 1/2-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter; discard remaining cake.
Sprinkle hearts with powdered sugar; set aside. Combine sliced strawberries and remaining 2 teaspoons sugar in a small bowl; toss well.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon chocolate sauce onto a dessert plate; top with a chocolate cake heart, 2 tablespoons sliced strawberries, and another cake heart. Repeat procedure with remaining ingredients.
