Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Optional: Fresh berries or fruit for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Mix in vanilla extract. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
- Combine evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Use a fork or skewer to poke holes all over the cake. Slowly pour the milk mixture evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak in fully.
- Beat heavy cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form. Optionally, add a tablespoon of sugar or vanilla. Spread whipped cream over the soaked cake. Garnish with fresh berries or fruits for a colorful and tasty presentation.
Notes
- Ensure the cake is completely cooled before soaking to prevent it from falling apart.
- Chill the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight for best absorption of the milk mixture.
- Decorate with fruits, coconut flakes, or nuts for added flavor and texture.
