- 9 eggs, room temperature (65-70F)
- 9 oz. granulated sugar
- 9 oz. cake flour, sifted
- 3 oz. oil
- 1/4 oz. vanilla extract
- Prepare a hot water bath.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sugar. Place the mixing bowl over the water bath and stir constantly, heating the eggs to 120F.
- Place the bowl on a mixer, high speed, and whip to maximum volume. Check that the foam has started to recede.
- Reduce the mixer to medium-low speed for 15 minutes to stabilize.
- Transfer to a large bowl and sift the flour in while folding. Continue until no flour is visible.
- Add some of the foam with the oil and vanilla. Mix to emulsify.
- Pour the oil mixture over the foam and fold together (~13 folds)
- Immediately divide into 2 prepared pans (WELL-greased).
- Bake in a 350F oven for 28 minutes, rotating halfway, or until you're able to touch the cake and it springs back.
Variations
