Kue Bolu Coklat (Chocolate Sponge Cake)

I remember once my late grandmother making this cake when I was young once and started to like making something simple in the kitchen. There were currently no electricity mikser that time, so my grandmother only use manual eggbeater that looks like a circular and supple pear, but strong. Too bad we do not keep it anymore. "Kue Bolu" is just we always call. 

Now with the various developments and culinary techniques this sponge cake now beginning to develop into a modern recipe with the addition of several 'emulfier' and other additional materials sponge cake is more popular and varied from simple old recipes. 

Trying again this old recipe without emulfier, this time I make chocolate version because my first intention is going to make tiramisu later from this basic sponge cake

Ingredients:
For pan size of 22 cm round.
-1/2 cup flour
- 1 +1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 5 egg yolks
- 4 egg whites
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 100 gr unsalted butter. Melted.
