‌Mocha Sponge Cake
1. Melt the instant coffee in the warm milk, set aside.
2. Preheat oven at 150°C/300°F.
3. In 2 large bowls, separate the egg whites and egg yolks. Set the egg whites aside.
4. In the egg yolks bowl, add the sugar. Mix well until well combined. Mix well.
5. Add the oil and coffee milk mixture. One at a time and mix one at a time.
6. Sift in the dry ingredients. Fold in using a spatula until just until the flour disappear. Do not over mix. Switch to a whisk to ensure well mixing.
7. In the other egg whites bowl, add in the cream of tartar. Mix it until bubbly or foamy. Then gradually add in the sugar, little by little. Mix until stiff peaks formed. This is important to achieve rising of the cake.
8. Add the egg white mixture into the chocolate batter. Use a whisk to gently fold in the egg whites. Switch to a whisk and continue folding in a circular motion. This method will help in elevating the cake later. Do it gently. However, do not over mix at this point. Mix just until the whites are gone.
9. Pour into a prepared pan, 7inch, greased and lined with parchment paper.
10. Bake it at preheated oven at 150°C/300°F for 30 min, then reduce to 140°C/285°F for 35 min (to prevent cracking on top). Insert a toothpick to make sure the toothpick comes out clean.
11. Let the cake cool completely before slicing the cake.
