The Perfect Sponge Cake
Ingredients:
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 cup of sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1/4 cup of melted butter
1/4 cup of milk
Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and greasing three 8-inch round cake pans. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder. In a separate larger bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy. Then, add in the vanilla extract and melted butter. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Creamy Fillings for Layers of Flavor
Ingredients:
1 cup of heavy cream
1/4 cup of powdered sugar
1/4 cup of raspberry jam
1/4 cup of almond paste
1/4 cup of chopped almonds
1/4 cup of chocolate shavings
While the sponge cakes are cooling, prepare the fillings. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over one of the cakes and top with the raspberry jam. Place another cake on top and spread a thin layer of almond paste over it. Sprinkle the chopped almonds on top and place the final cake on top.
For the top layer, whip more heavy cream and spread it over the cake. Then, sprinkle chocolate shavings on top for a decadent finish. Refrigerate the cake for at least an hour before serving to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together.
