Coat bottom and sides with the 2 teaspoons cocoa powder; set aside.
In a large bowl stir together flour, the 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Stir cooled chocolate mixture into flour mixture until blended (batter will be thick); set aside.
Beat egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Gradually add the 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, beating on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).
Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten.
Fold in the remaining beaten egg whites just until smooth.
Spread batter in the prepared baking pan.
Bake in a 350° oven for 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
Invert cake onto a serving plate; invert again onto wire rack and cool completely.
