sugar

Welcome to the kitchen and introduce the basic vanilla sponge cake recipe.
Mention that sponge cakes are light, fluffy, and made without oil or butter, using just eggs, sugar, vanilla, flour, and baking powder.
Use 6 large eggs, which can be room temperature or straight from the fridge.
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 cup of white granulated sugar to the mixing bowl with the eggs.
Wash the mixing bowl with degreasing dish soap to remove any grease before starting.
Beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla on high speed for 7-8 minutes until thick, pale, and fluffy.
Prepare the dry ingredients by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 teaspoon of baking powder in a separate bowl.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture in three increments, sifting it in each time.
Gently fold the flour into the egg mixture using a spatula, ensuring not to deflate the eggs.
Line the bottom of two 8-inch cake pans with parchment paper and leave the sides ungreased.
Divide the batter evenly between the two pans and level it out with an offset spatula.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cakes for 20-22 minutes until golden brown on top.
Cool the cakes on a wire rack for about 20 minutes after baking.
Run a knife along the edge of the cake pan to release the cake as it cools.
Flip the cakes over to remove them from the pans and peel off the parchment paper.
Let the cakes cool completely before slicing to avoid gumming up the knife.
Use a long serrated knife to slice the cake in half, checking for air pockets inside.
