Mocha Sponge Cake Recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon instant espresso powder

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

3 tablespoons hot water

1 tablespoon coffee flavored liqueur

1 tablespoon chocolate liqueur

1 cup sifted cake flour

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

3 egg whites

3 egg yolks

1 cup white sugar

Dessert

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9 inch round cake pans. Dissolve the espresso powder and cocoa powder in the hot water; set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

In a large glass or metal bowl whip egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually sprinkle in 1/4 cup sugar while continuing to whip until stiff but not dry.

Step 3

In a separate bowl whip egg yolks with remaining sugar until thick and pale about 5 minutes. Stir in the espresso mixture then sift in the flour baking powder and salt. Gently stir until incorporated. Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter until very well mixed then gently fold in the remaining egg whites. A few streaks are okay. Divide the batter between the two prepared pans and spread evenly.

Step 4

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven until the top of the cake springs back when lightly pressed.
