The recipe (adapted from Fad about Food)
A. 20g Butter, melted at room temp
B. 3 Eggs
70g Sugar (do not reduce this as it's been reduced)
C. 100g Cake Flour, sifted (I substitute All Purpose on this - don't attempt the same mistake because I find it rather dry)
D. 2 tbsp Fresh Milk (mix all in one bowl)
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Vanilla
With mixer on high speed - beat the eggs and sugar till it is a smooth consistency. The consistency should be ribbon like consistency. It should take about 8 minutes.
When you have got that texture, bring down the mixing speed to low. Beat that for about a minute. This will break up the larger air bubbles so that you get a stable but light batter.
I made some slight adjustments with the flow - I took a scoop of batter & mixed with the melted butter and place aside till later use.
Then, fold in sifted flour - till no flour lumps is seen.
Add the melted butter mixture
Lastly, mix the milk mixture into the flour mixture.
Grease pan / line with parchment paper.
Bake at 180c for 20 min (according to original recipe)
I'm currently using an oven which allows me to adjust
my heat coming from the top / base.
Instead, I baked with 180c for 5 min (upper and lower deck heat) Reduced to 160c with lower deck heat and bake for another 15 min.
When cake is ready, turn over cake on a chill rack and remove from mold after 5 min.
When cake is at room temp - it is ready to be decorated / sandwiched.
