How to make Fresh Cheese Sponge Cake
-
Mix flour, milk, eggs
First, separate the yolks and egg whites of 4 chicken eggs.
Put the egg yolks in a bowl along with 50g of unsweetened fresh milk, 50g of cooking oil, 40g of unsweetened yogurt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla flavor.
Then, use a whisk to mix well; when the mixture becomes homogeneous, sift in 60g of flour and 20g of cornstarch, and continue to stir until the flour is smooth.
Tip: To make the mixture easier to stir, sift half of the flour first, mix it well, and then sift in the remaining flour. -
Whip the egg whites and mix the batter
Place the egg whites in another bowl, use a mixer to beat at medium speed until you see tiny bubbles forming.
At this point, divide 85g of sugar into 3 portions, gradually adding it while beating the egg whites. Add the sugar while continuing to beat to ensure it dissolves completely.
After adding all the sugar in 3 stages, increase the beating speed until the egg whites reach a stiff peak state, lifting the whisk to create a sharp peak that slightly bends downwards.
Next, divide the whipped egg whites into 3 portions to mix evenly with the egg yolk mixture above.
Use a spatula to fold (gently stir while lifting from the bottom to the top) until the mixture is well combined.

Bake the sponge cake
Prepare a round sponge cake mold lined with non-stick parchment paper at the bottom, then gently pour the cake batter into the mold.
Lightly tap a few times to remove air bubbles from the batter, so the cake will not have holes and will rise evenly when baked.
Preheat the oven for 10 minutes at 160 degrees Celsius. Then, bake the cake at 150 degrees Celsius for 50 – 60 minutes until cooked.
