Foolproof Fluffy Genoise Sponge Cake

I baked this sponge cake for Christmas, so I uploaded the recipe.
When you insert a skewer and it comes out with uncooked dough, bake longer while keeping an eye on the cake.
When you make a cake, it might be a good idea to bake a sponge cake the day before, and slice and decorate it the next day. Recipe by *Anna*.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Coat the cake mold with vegetable oil or butter (not listed). Cut parchment paper to fit inside the mold and line on the bottom and side wall.
- 2
Break the eggs into a bowl and whip with a whisk until soft peaks form.
- 3
Add the sugar and whip further until the mixture is thick enough to form ribbons when the whisk is lifted. Then add the vanilla extract.
- 4
Combine the ingredients in a heat resistant bowl and melt in the microwave. For an 18 cm mold: 600W 40~50 seconds, for a 15 cm mold: 30~40 seconds.
- 5
Preheat the oven to 170℃ (338 F). Sift the cake flour into the batter and fold gently with a spatula.
- 6
Add the mixture from Step 4 and mix quickly.
- 7
Pour in the batter from Step 6 from high up into the mold and tap it on the counter several times to remove air bubbles. Pour in the last bit of the batter to the edge.
- 8
When the oven has reached the right temperature, bake for 35 minutes. For the 15 cm mold, bake for 30 minutes. When it's baked, drop the cake from a height of 30 cm to prevent it from shrinking.
- 9
Line a piece of parchment paper on the counter and place the cake upside down for 2~3 minutes to flatten the surface.
- 10
Remove the side wall, flip over the cake with the bottom mold onto your right hand, and place it gently on a cake rack to remove the bottom.
- 11
Peel off the parchment paper, and wrap the cake with the cake rack in a plastic bag and leave it to cool completely.
- 12
When it's cooled completely, slice it depending on what you are making.
- 13
When you whip the eggs, it's quicker if you do it in a bain marie.
- 14
Further more, after you whipped the eggs, beat them on low speed for 1~2 minutes to get a finer texture.
- 15
It's easier to mix the dry ingredients if you add in 2~3 batches.

Fluffy Genoise Sponge Cake Fluffy Genoise Sponge Cake
I failed several times, but it finally took shape. This is a recipe that turns out nice and fluffy.If you coat the mold with lots of butter, then you will be able to remove it cleanly from the mold, so I recommend using a lot. After sprinkling with flour, please thoroughly shake out the excess. After mixing the eggs into the flour, please stir sufficiently. Do it thoroughly and properly. If it's well-whipped the air bubbles will not pop. For 18 cm [7.1 in] round mold. Recipe by Kkmamacchi cookpad.japan -

Fluffy Sponge Cake 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.

Soft and Fluffy Sponge Cake Soft and Fluffy Sponge Cake
I bake this every year for Christmas and birthdays, but a 18 cm pan wasn't big enough, so I tried baking in a 21 cm pan.I wrote in Step 5 how to mix in the butter and milk into the batter, but if you've followed the recipe exactly, you can add it directly to Step 4. However, there's a high possibility that the batter would sink, so it's best to keep the two steps separate. Recipe by ko-ko cookpad.japan -
Fluffy and Moist Sponge Cake Fluffy and Moist Sponge Cake
I experimented with various ratios of the dry ingredients and finally came up with this sponge cake.If you raise the temperature of the egg mixture too high before you whip it, you will end up with a lot of air bubbles and the batter will be lumpy. So cool it down if it's too hot. If you have a thermometer, check the temperature of the butter before you add it to the batter. This process has an impact on the shape of the cake when it's baked (the dome on top falls depending on the temperature of the batter). Recipe by Shi-chan cookpad.japan -
Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake
I really wanted my daughter who is allergic to eggs to be able to eat a decorative fluffy sponge cake.Egg-free cakes tend to be chewy and heavy rather than fluffy so I tried aiming for a cake that's fluffy but not dried out.I added in cocoa to cover up the taste of the baking powder. If you're making a decorated one, though, with other ingredients topped on it, you could also try preparing it without the cocoa.When you add the vinegar at Step 5, the batter will begin to expand quite quickly so please mix it in and get the batter in the oven as quickly as possible.
