Sponge Cake with ground almond

This is a special Sponge Cake, but really easy to make. The Sponge Cake with ground almond has a delicious taste and consistency.

When I was child, I made lot of Sponge Cake with my mother and grandmothers. There are need 4 ingredients for the basic Sponge Cake: eggs, flour, sugar and baking powder.

Usually I make the basic Sponge Cake but sometimes I use ground almond (or ground walnut).

The Sponge Cake with ground almond is a very delicouse with cream or strawberries, but it is more special, if I fill it with the ganach or different filling.
