Fluffy Sponge Cake 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 6 large eggs
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch round cake pan.
2. Beat the eggs: In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy. This process can take around 5-7 minutes with an electric mixer.
3. Mix in vanilla: Add the vanilla extract to the egg-sugar mixture and continue mixing for another minute.
4. Sift dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.
5. Add dry ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or a folding motion, being careful not to deflate the batter.
6. Add butter and milk: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and milk. Gently mix this into the batter.
7. Pour into pan: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
8. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve: Once fully cooled, serve your light and airy sponge cake on its own, or top with whipped cream, fruit, or frosting of your choice!

Enjoy your perfect, fluffy sponge cake!
