Sponge cake
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. The “Margarita” sponge cake is simple to make and much faster than a regular classic sponge cake. For the recipe we’ll need a mixer, and we’ll whisk the eggs and sugar together right away, without separating the whites from the yolks. Adding butter to the batter gives the sponge cake a special structure and tenderness. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
