How to Make Never Fail Sponge
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a large bowl, beat 4 large eggs until light and creamy (about 3-5 minutes using an electric mixer).
- Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar, beating until the mixture is thick, pale, and almost ribbon-like (another 5-7 minutes).
- Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture in three additions, ensuring not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar or add your favorite frosting and enjoy!
