I had a long history of messing up sponge cakes.In Step 4, if the bain-marie cools down, make sure to bring it back to approximately 60℃. You shouldn't mix too much in Step 10, but if you don't mix it just right, the batter will sink. You could use regular A4 sized printing paper instead of parchment paper. Recipe by Rearea cheese

Fluffy Sponge Cake
This is a sponge cake I've made for a long time. If you would like a chocolate sponge cake, reduce the flour by about 10 g and add about 20 g of cocoa.Step 1: If using an electric mixer, beat on high speed until you can draw an S on the surface of the batter, about 1-2 minutes.Step 4: If the temperature of the melted butter is too high, it will remove all the air from the batter and result in a deflated cake.

Chocolate Sponge Cake (Sokolatopita)
Chocolate mmmmhhh a favorite sweet that most just love. I haven’t made this Chocolate Sponge cake in a while, and I decided to make it last night. I had all the ingredients and it only took about 35 minutes. Just mixed, baked and it was ready!When the cake finally cooled off, it was time to start pouring the homemade chocolate syrup on top, I have to admit just looking at it had me drooling and I’m not even a chocolate lover…Me like white Chocolate. 🙂Every dish or dessert I make I have to taste, this cake has me second guessing about not liking chocolate!!! 🙂 I added Cognac into the batter just to give it a bit of twist 🙂If you haven’t had Chocolate Sponge Cake try this recipe you’ll love it!!
