Finger biscuit is actually a light and sweet sponge cake. It's named because its shape is similar to that of finger. Finger biscuits are usually coated with syrup or other seasonings. They are used as basic ingredients for many desserts, such as tiramisu, Charlotte, and trifles. Because of its soft texture and small size, it is often used as food for babies. Finger biscuits first appeared in the 15th century in the Principality of Savoy, which is today in northwest Italy and southeast France. They were made to celebrate the visit of a French king at that time. Like other sponge cakes, finger biscuits do not use any chemical bulking agent. Instead, air is forced into the eggs to form the final fluffy taste. This recipe can make about 18 finger biscuits.

Cooking tips:This kind of small cake is best baked in high temperature. If the temperature is too low, it will take a longer time. As a result, the texture of the cake is too dry. The sugar powder sprinkled at last can ensure the crispness of the top layer of the finger biscuit and prevent the color from being too burnt yellow during baking. Put it in the oven quickly after the last time you sprinkle the sugar powder. Otherwise, the biscuits will be burnt easily after the sugar powder is melted.
