Ingrediants
- 240 g (4 medium) of eggs
- 120 g of powdered sugar
- 60 g of white flour of type 00
- 60 g of wheat or corn starch
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1 pinch of salt
Materials Needed

- Film
- Baking paper

- Scale weighs food
Preparation
- In an electric mixer, combine the eggs (yolk and egg white), the icing sugar and a pinch of salt. Cut a vanilla bean, scrape the seeds and flavor the eggs. Work the mixture into foam for at least 15 minutes: the cream must be extremely soft.
Attention
The secret to obtaining a very soft biscuit dough is to work the eggs with the sugar for a long time!- Slowly add the two flours (wheat flour and wheat starch or cornstarch) to the egg and sugar mixture, mixing everything with a wooden spoon or spatula. During this operation, it is advisable to incorporate air into the mixture, to make it as soft as possible. Pour the foam obtained into an oven plate suitably lined with greaseproof paper.
Alternatively
There is another method of making cookie dough, which involves whipping egg whites and yolks separately. In this case, it is necessary to process the yolks with sugar, flavoring and salt. Subsequently, the sifted flour and starch are added, and finally the whipped egg whites. The cooking and the cooling method are the same.- Cook the mixture in a hot oven at 220 ° C (function: static) for 7 minutes.
- In the meantime, distribute 40 g of granulated sugar on the surface of a linen cloth: this operation is important to prevent the biscuit dough from sticking to the cloth.
- Turn the hot sponge cake over onto the sugar-sprinkled tea towel. Gently remove the parchment paper and allow to cool for 15-30 minutes, covering with another cloth or with a sheet of cling film.
The alternative OK
Those who do not like to perceive the sugar on the surface of the sponge cake, can replace the cloth with simple film. In this case, the sponge cake must be turned over directly on the film, without necessarily adding sugar.- The biscuit dough is ready to accommodate the filling and be rolled as desired.
