STEP 2: With the mixer on medium speed, stream in the cup of sugar. Turn to full speed and beat until stiff peaks form.

STEP 3: Add in egg yolks and vanilla and turn the mixer to medium-high speed, mixing just until they're combined.

STEP 4: Sift in flour and salt and turn the mixer up to medium-low speed, mixing until flour is incorporated.

STEP 5: Pour batter into pans and bake at 350F for 18 minutes, until cake is golden, separates from edge, and springs back when pressed.

STEP 6: Flip cakes onto a tea towel and allow to cool. Dust with powdered sugar and serve or use in a layer cake.
