Active time: 25 min Start to finish: 3 hr This one-bowl cake, which is really simple to assemble, owes its airy volume and fine, even texture to the proper whipping of the egg whites. When the cake is in the oven, some volume builds from the air you have whipped into the whites. But most of the volume is produced by steam, which evaporates from the liquid in the egg whites and passes through the air cells of the egg whites, expanding them. A portion of confectioners sugar helps yield an especially delicate and tender cake. Be sure to measure out your ingredients before starting.
