Birthday Sponge
Cake
Cooking Instructions.
First, using the same type of fat that you’ll be using in
the cake, grease the inside of the cake pans. Now cut 2 circles
of parchment paper, 1 for each pan - you can use a pan as a template
- and then line the pan bases. Then grease the paper.
Next preheat the oven to 325°F. Then sift the flour and the
baking powder into a large bowl. Now add the superfine sugar, margarine
or butter and the eggs.
Then with a hand mixer or wooden spoon beat until everything is
well combined - this doesn’t take long – the mixture
should now be of a dropping consistency. This means that it should
drop easily from a wooden spoon when shaken, if not add a teaspoonful
or so of tepid water and mix again.
Now divide the mixture between the prepared cake pans and level
the tops.
