Ingredients
- 6 eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Beat 6 eggs (no need to separate them) with sugar until batter is three times in volume. This will take roughly 10 minutes in a stand mixer, longer if using a hand mixer.
- Sift flour and cocoa powder into the egg mixture.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold in dry ingredients. Be very gentle with the dough so you don’t over mix it and lose all the fluffiness.
- Add cake batter to an oiled or parchment paper lined baking sheet. A springform baking pan works amazing as well and makes the transferring process that much easier. Aim to use a pan that is 9-12 inches is diameter.
- Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Do the toothpick check to gauge doneness. Use in your favorite desserts that require chocolate sponge. The possibilities are endless!
Notes
- Notes:
- This recipe doesn’t need baking soda or baking powder. The leavening agent is the air that is beat into the batter.
