12 Layer Vanilla Sponge Cake step by step
MAKE CAKE LAYERS.
Preheat oven to 350. Spray 12 - 9 inch cake pans well with bakers spray. I used foil pans as I don't have 12 cake pans.
Seperate eggs. Put yolks in 1 large bowl and whites in another large bowl. Let stand, covered to come to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
Whisk flour, baking soda and salt in bowl, set aside.
Beat egg yolks with buttermilk, 2 cups of the sugar and vanilla until light and increased in volume, 5 to 8 minutes. Beat in reserved flour mixture just until well blended.
With clean, dry beaters, beat egg whites and cream of tarter until foamy and increased in volume.
Gradually add remaing 1/4 cup sugar until glossy firm peaks form.
Add 1/4 of egg white mixture to yolk mixture and fold in. Add remaining whites to yolks in 3 more additions, folding each addition in being careful not to deflate but thoroughly blending in.
Evenly divide batter in the 12 prepared pans. I used a one cup measure to scoop and pour into each pan, tapping pans to level batter.
Bake 4 cakes at a time in preheated oven until light golden, and cake feels dry not sticky. A toothpick will be mostly clean. About 7 to 9 minutes. Cool pans on racks 5 minutes then run a small sharp knife around edges to prevent any sticking.
