Egg yolks will increase in volume when whisked but not as much as egg whites and use a glass or ceramic bowl but wipe it out with a drop of vinegar first to make sure thereis no fat residue in the bowl.

Whisk the eggs first before adding the sugar, type of bowl makes bugger all difference.

If you have trouble getting yolks and sugar to volumise put the bowl over simmering water as you whisk. Once it starts (you'll know cos it all goes paler) remove from above the water - you don't want the eggs to cook.

And this is how you make a true sponge cake, with whole eggs, sugar and no butter or marge. It's just a sod if you don't have an electric whisk!

And it works best with very fresh eggs. Check the freshness by putting in a glass of water. Fresh eggs will sink and lie flat. Older eggs will lift at one end. If they float don't use them for anything they're stale!

Don't know about whole egg and sugar, however, I always manage to get the egg yokes and sugar to fluff up and double in size using a 2-prong electric hand whisk.

I really struggled with any of the fat free recipes on SW. Mind you, they used sweetner instead of sugar and I can't see how that would work.
