How to Make Vanilla Genoise Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until pale and thick ribbons form (about 5-7 minutes using a stand mixer or 8-10 minutes by hand).
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the batter.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
