3. Add the sugar to the eggs and continue to whisk together with a hand mixer, taking the whisk from a low speed to a higher speed gradually over a double boiler at 80℃ for approx. 7 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on the temperature of the double boiler, if the eggs become too hot, the cake will turn out dry and crumbly..
4. After 7 minutes, when the mixture is warm to the touch and has started to thicken, take it off the double boiler. Continue to whisk for a futher 2 - 3 minutes, cooling the mixture. If the mixture is hard to cool try whipping it suspended over a bowl of cold water..
5. Whip until the mixture sticks to the beaters thickly when you lift them out of the bowl. Keep whipping until it slowly falls off the beater when picked up..

7. Sift in the powder ingredients in 2 - 3 goes and fold in each time, folding from the bottom of the bowl to mix. Mix carefully allowing the mixture to pass through the blades of the whisk..
8. When there is a small amount of powder still remaining, take the warmed butter and milk mixture and add 1 scoop of the cake mixture to it. Mix it in well before distributing the butter and milk mixture all over the cake mixture and mixing thoroughly..
9. This is how the mixture should look when everything is mixed together. If you've whisked it enough the mixture should be nice and thick..
10. Pour the mixture into a cake tin. To get rid of the excess air bubbles spray some water on the surface and smooth it out..

Infallible Spongecake Recipe - This pound cake recipe is more of a basic one. When it comes to pound cake, basic can be a good thing. That is because pound cake can be dressed up in so many ways. People seem to like to dress theirs up with fruit, ice cream, and even cover it in chocolate. Basic pound cake seems to be a good balance when served with other items. I have made the European sponge cake and divided the batter in two, as you show on your video. One half I have baked it just plain and into the other half I have whisked in the apple cubes. Thank you and good luck
