Hot Milk Sponge Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup skim milk
1 teaspoon margarine or 1 teaspoon butter

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
In mixing bowl, beat eggs.
Add sugar and vanilla.
Beat until light.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
Fold dry ingredients into egg mixture.
In a small saucepan, bring milk and margarine to a boil.
Slowly add milk mixture to batter, stirring carefully.
Pour into greased and floured cake pan (7 x 12 inch or 9 x 9 inch).
Bake 30-35 minutes.
I often make this into a lemony cake. I add the zest of one lemon to the cake batter, and use the juice of the lemon with icing sugar to make a glaze.
