Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl.
- Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and half the sugar until fluffy.
- Beat in ½ teaspoon of the vanilla and the eggs.
- Now add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, bit by bit.
- Pour the resulting batter into a greased, flour 13x9-inch baking pan.
- Bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Combine the whole, condensed, and evaporated milks together.
- Let the cake cool to room temperature, then pour the milk mixture over it.
- Leave it for about 15 minutes for the milk to soak in.
- Whip the cream and add the rest of the vanilla and the rest of the sugar in a chilled metal or glass bowl.
- When the cream mixture is thick, spread it over the cake.
- Refrigerate the cake until you’re ready to serve it.
Notes
Variations and Substitutions:
For a tasty, tropical tweak, try coconut milk in place of the whole milk. You might want to sprinkle a little cinnamon or nutmeg on top before serving.
