Preparation of Batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar. Place the bowl over a double boiler with simmering water and whisk continuously using an electric mixer until the mixture becomes fluffy and doubles in volume.

Once the egg mixture is fluffy, remove from heat and continue whisking with the electric mixer until it cools down. Gently fold in the melted butter, ensuring it is well incorporated.

Adding Dry Ingredients:
Sift in the flour and cornstarch gradually, folding gently from bottom to top until fully combined. Add a pinch of salt and mix gently.

Baking Time:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
