Preparation

Step 1

* Let egg whites stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Dissolve cocoa in water; let stand until cool.
* In a large bowl, beat 3/4 cup sugar, milk, oil and extracts until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture until blended.
* In another bowl with clean beaters, beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Beat in remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form. Gradually fold into batter. Remove 2 cups batter; stir in reserved cocoa mixture.
* Coat a 10-in. fluted tube pan with cooking spray. Alternately spoon the plain and chocolate batters into pan. Cut through batter
* with a knife to swirl.
* Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
* For topping, in a microwave, melt whipped topping and chocolate; stir until smooth.
* Place cake on a serving plate. Drizzle with topping. Arrange raspberries in center of cake.
