Sponge Cake II 4.5.13

Here's my sponge cake with a little less sugar and more flour.  I also included liquids and baking powder.

3.625 oz cake flour, sifted (less if possible next time)
2.2 oz yolks (4 large yolks)
4.8 oz whites (4 large whites)
1/4 t baking powder
2.25 oz caster sugar
2.5 T warm water (1.25 oz)
1.5 T canola oil (0.75 oz)
1/2 t vanilla

Fill 8 inch pan with 13 7/8 oz of batter.

It came out pretty good.




I filled half the cake with sliced strawberries macerated, and vanilla pastry cream.  Then frosted with strawberry whipped cream.  Yum.



Vanilla Pastry Cream

1 c milk
2 oz sugar
2.5 oz yolks
0.75 oz cornstarch
