Step 1: Lightly butter the insides of the paper cups. With a sharp pointy knife, poke five or six slits evenly into the sides of the cups.
Step 2: In your mixer bowl, whip the eggs with the whisk attachment, on medium speed until they are foamy. Increase the speed to medium-high and add the sugar in a slow steady stream. Continue whipping until the eggs have tripled in volume, about 6-8 minutes.
Step 3: Remove the bowl and sift the flour (using a fine mesh strainer) over the top of the eggs. Using a large rubber spatula, gently fold in the flour until it is just incorporated in the eggs.
Step 4: Fill each paper cup 2/3 full of batter Place the cups in the microwave and cook on High for 30 seconds, or until the cakes are set.
Step 5: Cool in the cups for 5 minutes, then peel away the paper.
Step 6: Serve the cakes upright on nice dessert plates. Garnish with the sliced berries, ice cream, or chocolate sauce. Yum!
