Clear Water Cake ( Sponge Cakes in Cups)

Managed to squeeze out a little time for myself to bake some cakes for the kids at home... Wanted to do something very simple, was flipping thru some recipes online, found this recipe from "thelittleteochew.com" very interesting and decided to try it out today...

The cake is so soft and surprising, it didn't really sinks that much compare to my previous sponge cake... The method and recipe is actually the same... (I'm still wondering why the previous sponge cake sinks that much)

The cake will actually separate from the cups when it's cool down... It didn't sinks still... After like 20mins, it still maintains the same.... Yes!!!! I made it...

This is one of the last 3 made on the second tray... With some chocolate chips on it... Cute right???!!!!
