Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Preparation

1

Prepare the Cake

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking dish.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

3

Beat the Eggs

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and milk, mixing well.

4

Combine

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mixing until just combined.

5

Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

6

Soak the Cake

Allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes, then poke holes all over the top using a skewer.

7

Prepare the Milk Mixture

In a bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk. Pour this mixture over the warm cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes.

8

Chill

Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

9

Serve

Top with whipped cream and serve chilled.
