Instructions

1. Separate the eggs (make sure no yolk gets in the whites), put the egg yolks into a medium or large bowl and the egg whites into a large bowl.
2. Mix the egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar with a fork. Sift together the flour and baking powder, add the flour mixture to the egg yolks.

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4. With an electric mixer beat the egg whites to stiff peaks. Begin at a slow speed and gradually move up to high. When the egg whites are fluffy, gradually beat in 1/2 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

5. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk-flour mixture about 1/4 at a time. Don't stir or cake will not be spongy. Pour the batter into ungreased baking pan.

6. Bake the cake for about 30-40 minutes. After the first 10 minutes lower the heat to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C), do not open the oven. To check that the cake is done, insert a toothpick, it should come out clean. When done, allow the cake to cool in the open oven.

7. Once the cake is cool loosen sides with a spatula and remove from pan.
8. Meanwhile, prepare the fillings. For the first filling, combine in a medium bowl the sweetened condensed milk and melted butter, mix well with a spoon or electric mixer. For the second filling, combine in a separate bowl yogurt, sour cream and 1/2 cup sugar, mix well with a spoon or electric mixer. For a syrup to moisten the layers, mix 3/4 cup water and 3 teaspoons spreadable fruit or topping.
