Ingredients for a 33 x 22.9 x 5.08 cm (13 x 9 x 2 inch) baking pan:
- 260 g sugar
- 8 eggs
- 40 ml water
- 50 ml oil
- 30g cocoa
- 150 g cake flour
The pan should be greased with butter and floured or lined with parchment paper.
Directions:
Sponge cake:
Beat egg whites and water with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Add sugar and beat until dissolved.
In a separate bowl, mix egg yolks and oil. Fold in the egg yolks.
Combine the flour and cocoa. Slow down the mixer and carefully blend in the flour and cocoa until just combined.
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until brown (you can insert a toothpick in the centre and if it comes out clean then it’s ready).
