Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 5 large eggs separated
  • 1 cup granulated sugar divided
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 12 oz evaporated milk

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with 3/4 cup sugar until thick. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Pour the egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir gently to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the batter gently.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, and evaporated milk. Pour over the warm cake and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Notes

For an extra special touch, serve with whipped cream and fresh fruit on top.
