Delicate Sponge Cake
Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your baking vessel by coating it with butter and dusting it evenly with flour, resulting in a 9x13-inch baking pan.
3
Now, focus on the eggs - using your stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat them vigorously until they become thick and pale yellow in color, approximately 3 minutes.
4
Then, add sugar to the mixture gradually and continue beating until it reaches a thick consistency, about 5 minutes.
5
Using your hands, gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt into the batter to create a harmonious blend.
6
In a separate container, heat milk in the microwave until it begins to bubble and steam, taking around 1 minute.
7
Melt butter in the same container by stirring it until it's fully incorporated and smooth.
8
Add vanilla to the mixture and stir well.
9
Merge the hot milk mixture with the batter, blending on low speed until everything is fully incorporated and smooth.
10
Pour the final mixture into your prepared baking pan.
11
Bake the cake in your preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into its center comes out clean, which should take anywhere from 25 to 30 minutes.
