To make the perfect chocolate sponge, start by creaming together 250 grams of butter and 250 grams of icing sugar. You can use a food processor or mix by hand with a spatula and whisk.

Next, add four eggs and continue mixing until well combined. Then, add 250 grams of self-raising flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, a pinch of salt, and 50 grams of cocoa powder. Mix until just combined.

Pour the batter into a lined baking tray and bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 20-25 minutes. Once baked, let the sponge cool completely before assembling the cake.
