Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a square baking pan. Set up three mixing bowls.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Separate egg whites and yolks into the other two bowls.
Beat egg yolks with ¾ cup sugar with an electric mixer on high speed, until yolks are a pale yellow. Stir in the milk and ube extract.
Beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. With the mixer on, pour in ¼ cup sugar and beat on high speed until egg whites are stiff but not dry, about 1 minute.
Pour egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and combine gently with a spatula.
Gently fold in egg white mixture with the spatula until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan, even out the surface, then bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
