How to Make Italian Sponge Cake from scratch
Preheat your oven to 350°F, and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper. Place egg whites in a large metal mixing bowl, and egg yolks and vanilla in a smaller mixing bowl. To the bowl with the egg whites, add ½ cup of sugar, and whisk on low until it’s foamy. Then, increase the speed until peaks form. Add the remaining sugar to the bowl with the egg yolks, and beat until very thick and pale yellow. Carefully fold the egg yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites. Fold the flour into the egg mixture in thirds until well mixed, being careful not to overmix. Divide batter evenly into prepared pans and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out dry.
