Method
Separate your eggs, whites from yolks. Whip the whites until you get stiff, glossy peaks.
Whip the yolks with 8 tablespoons of sugar until pale and fluffy.
Gently fold the whipped whites into the yolks until combined.
In a separate bowl, mix your flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder together. Fold this mixture into the egg mixture in 2–3 additions, being gentle as you go.
Add the vegetable oil and fold to combine. Pour in the boiling water and gently fold everything together until smooth.
Pour the batter into a 9–9.5 inch cake pan. Bake at 320–340°F for about 45 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
Let the sponge cool completely in the pan at room temperature.
