Rate this Recipe


Ingredients:

1 Cup Flour
1 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder
1/4 Tsp Salt
5 Eggs, separated
1 Cup Sugar, divided
1/3 Cup Whole Milk
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
12 oz Can Evaporated Milk
14 oz Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 Cup Whole Milk
1 Pint Heavy Whipping Cream
3 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
Ground Cinnamon, for topping
Strawberries, sliced, for topping

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x13 pan with baking spray.
  2. Separate the eggs into 2 bowls - yolks in one bowl and whites in the other bowl. Add ¾ cup of sugar to the egg yolks and use a hand mixer to mix on high speed until the yolks are a pale-yellow color.
  3. Add 1/3 cup milk and vanilla and stir to combine.
  4. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate large bowl.
  5. Add the egg yolk mixture and gently stir until combined.
  6. Use a hand mixer to beat the egg whites on high. Slowly add the remaining ¼ cup of sugar while you beat the egg whites, until stiff peaks form.
  7. Fold the egg whites into the rest of the batter until combined.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Make sure to smooth the top with a knife so it is level and without any divots.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
  10. Combine the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk in a small bowl.
  11. Use a fork to poke holes all over the top of the cake, making sure to poke around the edge as well.
  12. Slowly pour the mixture all over the top of the cake, including the edges. Then cover and place in the fridge for at least one hour but up to overnight to allow the cake to soak up the liquid.
  13. Combine the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla to a bowl. Use a hand mixer and beat on high until stiff peaks form. Spoon on top of the cake and smooth over with a knife or spatula.
  14. Sprinkle with cinnamon and slice some berries to top with before serving.
