Ever wonder what to do with all those left-over egg yolks from baking an angel food cake? This is what my grandmother did with hers! A luscious, eggy sponge cake. You can frost it or not, your choice!

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 10inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 2/3 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
10 egg yolks (at room temperature)
3/4 cup hot water
1 teaspoon lemon extract

Steps:

  • Sift together cake flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • With electric mixer, beat egg yolks until slightly thickened; add hot water gradually, beating until mixture is very thick and light (about 10 minutes).
  • Add flavoring to egg yolks, then add sugar gradually, beating constantly.
  • Fold in flour, about a fourth at a time (I do this by hand) folding until well blended.
  • Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
  • Bake at 375°F for 40-50 minutes until done.
  • Remove cake from oven and invert pan.
  • Let cake stand for an hour until cool.

This cake is a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time.

The cake didn't rise as much as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of citrus flavors, but I really enjoyed this cake. The orange flavor is subtle and not overpowering.
