  3. Gradually add 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of water, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  4. Sift together 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl, then fold into the egg mixture.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cake springs back when touched.
