Vanilla Sponge Cake
Description
Perfect for tea and coffee. This is a classic sponge cake recipe used for making various cakes, pastries, and desserts. For traditional cakes, the baked sponge is cut horizontally into 2-3 layers, soaked with any syrup, and filled with cream. You can also cut the sponge into cubes for desserts like "Grafские развалины" (Graf's Ruins) or other similar treats. Alternatively, pass the sponge through a meat grinder to make pastries like "Potato" (Karтошка). Be creative, and may everything turn out delicious! Enjoy your meal—serve cooled or slightly warm.
