Sponge Cake

Ingredients:

8 eggs (seperated)
190g sugar
95g flour
55g cornstarch flour
45g butter (melted)
1 tsp vanilla essence

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius
2. Place the egg whites into the mixer and add the sugar a little at a time (leave 2 tbsp of sugar). Once nice and stiff, turn off your mixer.
3. In another mixer, add your egg yolk and mix on high until creamy using the same mixer. It will take about 1 minute. Add 2tbsp of sugar into the egg yolks and continue mixing until thick. Add vanilla essence and mix it till it looks double its volume.
4. Slowly add the egg white into the egg yolk by using batches. Add one batch into the egg yolk and then fold, add another batch and fold in, and then another batch and fold in. Do not mix. You would want to fold and do not over mix.
5. Sieve in the flour and cornstarch into the batter and then fold in again.
6. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for about 30 minutes or until it's brown and when you insert a skewer in the middle it comes out clean.
