Ingredient
Direction
1
Pre-heat oven to 350. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
2
Whisk room-temperature eggs and sugar in a stand mixer. Sugar and eggs should treble in volume when mixed on medium high. Pulling batter ribbons on top means ready.
3
Remove the stand mixer bowl and fold in the flour in two batches with a rubber spatula. Use caution when adding flour to avoid deflating eggs.
4
Pour batter into pan. Bake for 25–30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.
5
After baking, let the cake cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Knife-loosen the cake from the pan sides and remove the collar. Let cake cool completely before serving.
