Recipe Summary Traditional Victoria Sponge
This is the traditional recipe for a Victoria sponge cake, a much loved English favorite. Serve with buttercream as in the recipe, or freshly whipped cream. Dust with a layer of confectioners' sugar if desired.Ingredients | Eggless Chocolate Sponge Cake Recipe With Butter
1 ⅓ cups self-rising flour
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup margarine
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
¼ cup butter
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup raspberry jam
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 7-inch cake pans and line with parchment paper.
Sift self-rising flour into a bowl; add sugar, margarine, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Crack in eggs. Beat with a wooden spoon or an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Divide batter between the cake pans; smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
Sift confectioners' sugar into a bowl; add butter and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until frosting is light and fluffy.
Spread raspberry jam over 1 cake layer. Cover jam with frosting. Place second cake layer on top.
I always use margarine; butter is too heavy.
Substitute strawberry jam for the raspberry jam if preferred.
Eggs can vary a lot in size. For best results, weigh the eggs. They will more than likely weigh over or under 6 ounces. Use equal amounts of flour, sugar, and margarine.
