Basic sponge cake can be use as a base for many desserts. You can bake it in a pressure cooker or in a microwave oven. I have baked this one in microwave. Its one of the basic microwave cooking recipe.

2. In a different pot take ghee (at room temperature) add fresh malai and milkmaid. Mix them well. Add vanilla essence. Mix it.
3. Now add half of the dry ingredients and half of the milk and gently fold it. Then add the rest of the dry ingredients and rest of the milk. Mix them well as to avoid any lumps. Now the cake batter is ready.
4. Take an aluminum mould, grease it with ghee or butter and dust it with maida.
5. Preheat the microwave @ Convection for 200 degree for 5 mins.
