Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a pan (20cm diameter) with parchment paper.
In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking powder. Whisk until combined. Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, eggs, salt and sugar on medium- high speed for 5 minutes.
Reduce the mixer speed to medium and begin slowly adding the flour mixture. Scrape down the bowl as needed and beat just until combined.
Pour the sponge cake into the prepared pan, smooth it out, bake for 30 minutes (test with a skewer) and let cool completely on a cooling rack.
