Method Preheat oven to 180°C, (160°C, gas mark 4). Grease two 8" sandwich tins Whisk together the egg yolks and hot water until foamy using an electric whisk. Slowly add two thirds of the Half Spoon and continue whisking on a high speed until thick and creamy. In a clean bowl whisk the egg whites until stiff, slowly adding the remaining Half Spoon 1 dessert spoon at a time, allowing 10 seconds between each addition. Carefully fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Sift the flour, cornflour and baking powder over and carefully fold in. Pour into the prepared tins and bake in the centre of a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until firm to the touch. Allow to cool. For the filling beat together the cream and vanilla bean paste. Spoon half of the cream onto one of the sponges, top with raspberries and sandwich the second sponge on top. Top with the remaining vanilla cream, fresh raspberries and a dusting of icing sugar. Let's Bake The easiest way to follow a recipe Reviews 02 September 2020 4 star rating I used cornstarch instead of corn flour by mistake, but it still turned out amazing. I am impressed by the fact that there is no butter in this recipe, and the fact that the quantities of the flours are little in comparison to other cakes out there. I like that it also shows the metric version of this recipe. I def. recommend this cake if you feel like you want to indulge minus the calories. 29 May 2020 1 star rating Terrible recipe - cakes so flat and taste awful!
