VICTORIA SPONGE CAKE



Victoria Sponge Cake image

A Victoria Sponge was the favorite sponge cake of Queen Victoria, and has since become a tried-and-true recipe for tea-time sponge cakes. Victoria Sponges are generally filled with jam, and are undecorated on the top, but you can serve each piece with a dollop of whipped cream, or shake some powdered sugar over the top if you'd like.

Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup milk, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch springform pan.
  • Sift the flour and baking powder into a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into butter mixture before adding the next. Beat in vanilla. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing until just incorporated. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn the cake out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • This cake can be served as is, just dusted with confectioners' sugar. Alternately, cut the cake in half horizontally and sandwich the layers together with jam or custard.

VICTORIA SPONGE CAKE



Victoria Sponge Cake image

Victoria sponge cake's simple filling of whipped cream, jam, and fresh fruit makes it the perfect dessert for a summer celebration.

Provided by Zoë François

Yield Makes one 8-inch double-layer cake

Number Of Ingredients 18

16 oz. (450g) fresh or frozen strawberries, raspberries, or other berries
1⁄2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cups (480ml) heavy whipping cream
1 to 2 Tbsp. confectioners' sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup (220g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup plus 2 Tbsp. (220g) superfine sugar
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
4 eggs, at room temperature
1 3⁄4 cups (220g) self-raising flour
12 oz. (340g) strawberries, stemmed and quartered, plus more for decorating
1 Tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tsp. lime zest
1 pinch ground pink peppercorn (optional)
1 3⁄4 cups (225g) strawberry Quick Jam (see below) or store-bought preserves
1 recipe Perfect Whipped Cream (see below), whipped to stiff peaks
Confectioners' sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease two 8 by 3-inch or 20 by 8cm round cake pans, then line them with greased parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter on high speed until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Turn the mixer speed to medium-low, add the superfine sugar and vanilla to the butter, and mix until incorporated. Then turn the speed to medium-high and beat until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape the bowl often.
  • Turn the speed to low and add the eggs, one at a time, beating just until combined. Scrape the bowl after each addition.
  • Add one-third of the flour to the butter mixture and mix on low speed, just until incorporated. Repeat with another one-third flour until just incorporated. Add the final one-third flour. It will be a thick batter.
  • Divide the batter among the prepared pans and smooth the tops using a small offset spatula. Gently tap the pans on the counter several times to release excess air bubbles.
  • Bake until the cakes are golden and a tester comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 20 minutes, then remove from the pans and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • In a medium bowl, toss together the quartered strawberries, granulated sugar, lime zest, and pink pepper (if using). Allow to macerate until the sugar dissolves, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove the parchment paper and place one cake layer on a serving plate.
  • Spread the jam over the top of the cake, then cover the jam with a 1-inch or 2.5cm layer of the whipped cream. Distribute half the macerated strawberries over the whipped cream.
  • Place the second cake on the whipped cream and dust the top generously with confectioners' sugar and decorate with whole and halved strawberries.
  • This cake is best served right away, with the remaining macerated strawberries and whipped cream, but any leftovers can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice and use a fork to break up the raspberries just enough to produce a bit of juice. Set over medium-low heat and simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring often.
  • The jam is ready when it clings to a spoon and you can draw a line through the jam that doesn't immediately fill in. Remove from the heat and let cool thoroughly.
  • Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla and beat on medium speed (you read that right) until just thick-it will start to leave marks from the whisk in the cream.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer and, using the whisk attachment, continue whipping by hand for several seconds until the cream reaches the desired consistency; this way, you can ensure the mixer won't take it too far. Whipped cream is best used right away.
