Traditional Sponge Cake 老式鸡蛋糕

 



The simple traditional chinese sponge cupcakes has a higher sugar and flour content as compare to the "modern day" lighter version sponge cake. The crumb may be a little dry, but the aroma of the caramelized crust was irresistible, to me😋 The cakes certainly have to go with your favourite hot beverages, to "wash" them down your throat😉 

If you want to make the cake more milky, you can soak the cake with milk - three types of milk.  And topped with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Oh, so yummy 😋


Yield: 7 cupcakes 4.8x4.8 cm

Using 55~57g eggs

2 egg whites, 79g
70g raw cane sugar
pinch of salt

2 egg yolks, 36g

1g baking powder
