Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine the eggs with the sugar and beat until the mixture is light and airy and about 3x the size in volume. This will take roughly 10 minutes in a stand mixer, longer if using a hand mixer. Follow this video tutorial for tips on making a perfect sponge cake.

  • Using a spatula, fold in the flour in small portions to keep the mixture light and airy. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour the batter in.
    Cake batter in the making
  • Bake the cake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Once the cake is ready, a toothpick should come out clean from the center. Let the sponge cake cool to room temperature and then poke holes in it with the bottom of a wooden spoon, 1/2-inch apart. Prepare the jello according to the package instructions.
