  2. Break your eggs in a clean bowl...using a hand mixer or whisk beat them till they doubles in volume.

  4. Add your essence and sifted flour in bits. Gently fold in with a spatula till you can see no flour streaks.
  5. Pour your batter in a bowl and bake for 25 mins.
  6. Once ready,let it cool and take it away from the pan.
