Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Blend the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar in a mixer bowl with a wire whip attachment until the mixture doubles in volume-about 15 minutes on high speed. Just before stopping the mixer, add the vanilla and mix inches.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Sift together the cake flour, cornstarch and salt. Fold dry mixture into egg mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, just until blended.
- Coat two 10-inch round cake pans with shortening. Pour the batter into the pans and put them immediately into preheated 350 degree oven.
- Bake until tops are springy to the touch, about 45 to 50 minutes.
- Remove the cakes from the pans and cool on a wire rack.
- When cool, use a long serrated knife to slice off the tops of the cakes.
- For tiramisu or other layer cakes, divide each cake into three uniform layers with a serrated knives.
