' 3. Use a hand whisk mix egg yolk, salt and sugar together.'
Must I whisk the mixture till its light and creamy or just stir/mix them up will do? (like making scramble eggs)
Tks in advance. Yummy chocolate cake!

Hi Anonymous,
Just whisk till well mix no need to be light and creamy.
Hi Happy Flour
I used to whisk it till thick and creamy and had difficulty folding in the egg white which result in a dense cake. Thanks for the information =) will try again.
