- For genoise: Preheat oven to 350F. Butter and flour 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides; line bottom with parchment paper. Cover cake rack with paper towel; spray paper towel with nonstick spray.
- Sift flour, cocoa pwdr and baking soda into small bowl 3 times. Combine Large eggs, egg yolk, sugar and salt in large stainless steel bowl. (Step One)
- Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (don't let bottom of bowl touch water). Whisk till mix is just hot to touch (thermometer will register 110 F), about 2 min. Remove mix from over water. (Step Two) Using electric mixer, beat till mix triples in volume and falls in heavy ribbon when beaters are lifted, about 5 min. Beat in vanilla.
- Sift flour mix over in 3 additions; fold gently to incorporate each time. Drizzle butter over and mix in (don't overmix or possibly batter will deflate). Transfer batter to prepared pan.
