Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake
Description
I have always loved this recipe, especially when one is able to cook in in such a way that the middle part is still wet. I have always been afraid of making this recipe as I am not the best at baking. But amazingly enough it came out perfect and I am very proud of myself.

This looks really interesting and the idea of baking it in parchment paper intrigues me.

thanks Theresa. It is so very easy to make. I have done it a few more times lately and does not seem to last more than 3 hours, between kids and adults it just disappears!
