Sponge cake can be made ahead of time and once cooled and firm we can cut it or mold to a desired shape. Decorate with favorite frosting or eat with warm jam and a touch of whipped cream.
You may notice, the cake on this pictures is little greenish :), well this is my little princess touch. She just have to experiment with the food colors... she was mixing a lot of blue and little bit red....we expected more of a purple color, but this is what we got :)..The cake on the pictures is made with half doze of the ingredients, as I was short on eggs, it was baked in 9'' round cake form. It was perfect portion for two days for the kids only!
I let kids choose their frosting, sprinkles and fruits every time they want to eat a slice. Believe me, the chances of finishing everything on the plate it higher when they do it "in their own way";).
Ingredients:
6 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Directions:
Separate the yolks and egg whites.
Beat the yolks in a big mixing bowls until light yellow in color and thick in texture.
Add the sugar gradually and keep beating until the color turn even lighter yellow.
Add water and vanilla extract.
Mix in the flour as well.
In a second bowl beat the egg whites until frothy and add salt and cream of tartar. Beat the mixture until stiff.
Fold the whites in the egg yolk mixture slowly.
Bake in a preheated oven to 350 Degrees F. for 30 mins or until done.
I helped little bit here to make the frosting in a way kids wanted it to be :)
TIPS:
You can use any flavor other than vanilla as per your taste. Serve with whipped cream or a topping of your choice.
