Simple sponge cakes

Description

The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. The great thing about this recipe is that you don't need to separate egg whites from yolks, beat them separately, and then carefully combine them to prevent the mixture from deflating. The batter is quite easy to make using a double boiler and a mixer. One important tip: use sponge cakes that have cooled completely (preferably leave them overnight after baking). Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
