The cocoa might clump, so make sure you sift very well. When you add the flour, mix in cutting motions to fold it in. Recipe by Maimama

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put the butter and milk into a heatproof bowl and microwave until the butter melts. Combine and sift the cake flour, katakuriko, and cocoa powder. Sift 2-3 times.
- 2
Put the eggs and sugar into a bowl and place the bowl over another bowl of hot water. Beat well until stiff peaks form. When warm to the touch, remove from the hot water bath and continue whipping.
- 3
When you can pierce the batter with a toothpick and it doesn't collapse, it's ready. Make sure you beat well until there are stiff peaks.
- 4
Add the sifted dry ingredients and fold in lightly, trying not to break the bubbles. Just until the flour disappears.
- 5
Add the melted butter from step 1 to the batter from step 4 and lightly fold it in. Pour the batter into a cake pan lined with parchment paper. Bake in an oven preheated to 170ºC for 25-30 minutes. It's done when a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
- 6
When it's done baking, invert the cake and let it cool. You can leave it in the pan.
- 7
After it cools, remove the parchment paper and it's all done.

Have fun decorating your cake.

Fluffy and Moist Chocolate Sponge Cake Fluffy and Moist Chocolate Sponge Cake
I arranged my fluffy and soft plain sponge cake to make this chocolate sponge. I added honey and starch syrup, and adjusted the amount of fat so as to make a fluffy and moist, but not dry sponge cake.You have to beat the eggs well, but do not beat too much. After that, the texture must be made fine with a hand mixer at a lower-speed. Fold in the mixture using a spatula with a cutting motion and rotate your bowl against the direction of the spatula. Do not over-mix but make sure the cocoa liquid is combined evenly. After mixing, the volume of the batter may drop, but do not worry. When it bakes, it will rise. Recipe by Lesser Panda

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 -

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.

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 -

Moist & Fluffy Swiss Roll Sponge Cake Moist & Fluffy Swiss Roll Sponge Cake
I looked up a lot of recipes and I tried different quantities. In the end, this is the "perfect" recipe that I arrived at. My sponge cakes have never failed ever since!-By using a hand whisk, not a plastic spatula, the flour and egg mixture will mix nice and evenly. Do not mix vigorously. Incorporate as much air as possible by making use of the wires of the whisk to whip through the mixture.-When you cool the sponge cake, wrap tightly with cling film. When you peel off the film the brown skin of the sponge will stick to the cling film and you'll be able to give it a nice golden brown color to both sides of the cake. If you wrap with cling film after it's completely cooled, the film shouldn't stick anymore, so do this before it cools completely. For one 28 x 28 cm [11.0 x 11.0 in] baking sheet.
