Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 177°C (350°F) and prepare two 8-inch cake pans or a jelly roll pan. Line only the bottoms with parchment paper; do not grease the sides.
2. Clean the stand mixer bowl with degreasing soap or vinegar to remove any grease.
3. Place the eggs, sugar and vanilla in the bowl and whisk on high speed for 7 to 9 minutes, until thick, pale and voluminous. With a hand mixer, this may take an extra 5 to 7 minutes.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder.
5. Sift the dry ingredients into the eggs in small batches, one-third at a time.
6. Fold the flour in gently but thoroughly with a spatula, working from the bottom of the bowl. Do not use a whisk or the mixer for this step.
7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
8. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, until the top is a rich golden brown.
9. Right after removing the cake from the oven, run a knife around the edge of the pan. Let the cake cool completely before splitting or cutting it.
