VANILLA GENOISE, VANILLA SPONGE CAKE
Light as a feather Vanilla Genoise (vanilla sponge cake). This cake will absorb lots of syrup for an extra layer of flavor and moisture. I like to add a bit of rum to the syrup, but you can use vanilla, Grand Marnier or whatever flavor you'd like. This classic cake is especially delicious with whipped cream, mousse and/or fresh fruit

Steps:
- Line the bottom of two 8" cake pans with a parchment round, or butter and flour the pan. Preheat the oven to 350°F (don't use the convection setting).
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan, cook until the milk solids sink to the bottom of the pan and become brown. Drain the butter into a medium bowl, leaving the milk solids in the pan. Stir the vanilla into the browned butter and set aside.
- Put the eggs, sugar and salt in a mixer bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water (don't let the bowl touch the water) and whisk until the eggs are slightly warmer than body temperature. Put the bowl onto the mixer and whisk until the eggs are tripled in volume.
- Sift half the flour over the egg mixture and use a balloon whisk to fold, repeat with the remaining flour. Whisk 1 cup of the batter into the browned butter to lighten the butter, then whisk in another cup of batter.
- Fold the butter mixture into the batter just until combined. Don't over mix or you'll loose some volume in the cake. Divide the batter evenly between the pans.
- Bake until the cake springs back when pressed in the center, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.
- Cool completely before filling and frosting.
- Trim the top of the cake to level, if desired, split each cake into two layers.
- Brush the layers generously with syrup before filling & icing.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper, and set aside. (see note 1 on making different sized sponge cakes)
- Sift your flour, salt, and baking powder into a medium sized bowl, and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine your eggs and sugar. Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the eggs and sugar for 10 to 15 minutes, or until about tripled in volume, thick, and a pale yellow color. You should be able to draw a figure 8 with the batter and it should remain on the surface of the batter for about 2 seconds before sinking back down. It will take a bit longer to whip the eggs if using a handheld mixer (versus a stand mixer).
- Add your flour mixture to the whipped eggs. Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the egg mix until incorporated. Take care not to over mix! It's okay if you see a few streaks of flour in the batter because we're going to give it another mix in a second.
- In a medium bowl, combine your melted butter, vanilla extract, and add about 1/2 a cup of the cake batter. Mix to combine. (This is to make sure the butter incorporates into the rest of the batter easily without sinking to the bottom of the bowl!)
- Pour your butter mixture into the rest of the batter. Fold everything together until it's all combined, and you no longer see any streaks of flour or butter. It's going to deflate a bit, which is normal! But keep an eye out to make sure the batter doesn't deflate too much.
- Pour your cake into your prepared baking dish. Place in the center of your preheated 350°F oven, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the cake for about 10 to 15 minutes in the pan, then flip onto a wire rack to cool completely.
VANILLA GENOISE CAKE
A baker's basic. Genoise is a dry cake that is used with ingredients that are very moist, so they can soak up the extra moisture and take on that flavor, like trifles, or mousse filled cakes. This is my fool-proof formula.

Steps:
- Oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line the bottom of One 8 or 9 inch round cake pan OR 8-inch square pan, OR 11x17 sheet pan with parchment, and spray lightly with some sort of spray release (like Pam).
- Combine the butter and vanilla in a small bowl.
- Set aside somewhere warm (you want the butter to stay melted).
- Combine the flour with 3 tbl.
- of the sugar and sift again.
- Set aside.
- In the bowl of your mixer, combine the eggs and rest of the sugar.
- Place the mixing bowl in a large pan of hot (not boiling, very hot tap water is good) water, and mix with your VERY CLEAN hand (kids love this part) until the eggs feel warm to the touch (body temp)*.
- Return the bowl to the mixer and whip on high speed until cool, light and at the ribbon stage (when you lift the beaters, ribbons of batter fall back into the bowl and don't disappear very quickly).
- Now, everyone says to use a rubber spatula, but I find it much easier to use my hand to do this next part**.
- Sprinkle about 1/3 of the flour onto the eggs and quickly and gently fold into the batter.
- Fold in half the remaining, then the rest.
- Take about a handful of the batter and mix into the small bowl of butter and vanilla until well combined.
- Gently fold that back into the batter.
- Divide between the pans and bake as follows: for an 8" square, 20-25 min.
- ;an 8" round, 25-30 minutes; a 9" round, 20-25 minutes; and an 11x17 sheet pan, 15-20 minutes.
- The cakes should JUST BEGIN to shrink away from the side of the pans, and should spring back when you lightly touch them in the center.
- Remove from oven, let cool about 10 minutes in the pan then turn out onto a flat surface and let cool completely before peeling off the parchment.
- Set aside until ready to use.
- DO NOT OVERBAKE.
- This cake is best if allowed to sit a day before using in trifles.
- NOTE 1: Genoise is supposed to be a dry cake.
- It was made specifically to take moist toppings so it could soak them up.
- *NOTE2: I learned to use my hand when warming yolks in culinary school.
- The idea is that as soon as it feels warm on your hand, it is at the perfect temperature to whip to ribbon stage.
- **NOTE3: I learned to fold flour into delicate batters like this with my VERY CLEAN hand in culinary school also.
- At first I thought it was stupid, but I quickly saw it was the best way to be able to tell if all of your flour is mixed in and avoid any un-incorporated flour bits.
- I mix angelfood cakes this way, too.
- Children love to do this!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit, line 2 6-inch baking pans (or 1 9-inch) with parchment paper on the bottom only. Don't grease the sides. Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a sauce pan or microwave, set aside to cool slightly.
- Mix the flour and cornstarch together in a small bowl. If you are using all purpose flour, make sure to add the baking powder and pinch of salt listed in the notes area of this recipe. Sift the flour and cornstarch together a couple of times to remove any lumps and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, beat the eggs and sugar on full speed until the mixture is almost white, triples (at least) in volume and reaches ribbon stage (see post above). About 10 to 11 minutes on high for a stand mixer, closer to 15 minutes for a hand mixer and 20 minutes or more if whisking by hand.
- Add half the flour very gently. Fold in to the egg mixture, then add half the butter, pouring it around the edge of the bowl. Fold in. Repeat with the remaining half of the flour and butter. Take care not to fold out too much air.
- Transfer the batter to your baking pan(s) and bake 22-25 minutes on the center rack, with the cakes closer to the oven door. Try not to open the door for the first half of baking.
- Check your cakes a bit early if your oven runs hot. They should spring back when gently pressed or a toothpick comes out clean.
- Use a sharp knife to run around the edges of the pan, then turn the cakes out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Cakes themselves will be good tightly wrapped for up to 4 days. Layers may also be frozen for up to 2 months tightly wrapped.

- Grease and flour your pans with a parchment paper circle for the bottom as well as the sides of the pan.
- Place the eggs (whites and yolks) and cream of tartar in a mixing bowl with the whisk attachment.
- Swift the flour for the third time directly into the eggs. Do this in three batches folding carefully so the eggs whites don't deflate. The folding method - you are essentially making an O in front of you. So you place your spatula into the batter... go under away from you.....and come up in front of you. You are also rotating the bowl with the other hand simultaneously. Sounds complicated but it is not.
- Make sure you have all the flour incorporated into the batter before you add the butter to avoid flour pockets into the finished cake.
