Whip with a hand mixer for 30 seconds to a minute on medium high to high speed until light, fluffy and cold. Scrape down the bowl. Add the egg and whip for another minute. Scrape down the bowl.

Prepare the Pans: Add half of the batter to each pan and spread the batter evenly with a small off-set spatula.
Bake: Place the pans into the oven and raise the oven temperature to 400 for 5 minutes. Then turn it back down to 350 and bake 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove the pans to a cooling rack and cover them with a clean tea towel until they are completely cool.
