Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
  • ½ cup whole milk (or heavy cream)
  • 2 cups cold heavy cream (or heavy whipping cream)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together your 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 6 large eggs (at room temperature) with 1 cup granulated sugar on high speed for about 5-7 minutes until pale yellow and thick.
  4. Reduce mixer speed to low and slowly add ½ cup whole milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the egg mixture, mixing just until combined.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in two additions, using a spatula until no streaks of flour remain.
  6. Pour the batter evenly into your prepared baking pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  8. While the cake cools, combine 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, and ½ cup whole milk (or heavy cream) in a large bowl. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, use a fork to poke holes all over the surface of the cake, about ½ inch apart.
  10. Slowly and evenly pour the entire milk mixture over the poked cake. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb, then cover the pan with plastic wrap.
  11. Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight.
  12. Before you start the whipped cream, place a large mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
  13. Pour 2 cups cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl. Add ½ cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
  14. Once your cake is thoroughly chilled and soaked, spread the freshly whipped cream evenly over the top.
  15. For a final flourish, dust the top with a pinch of cinnamon or add fresh berries.
  16. Slice and serve your beautiful, milky-sweet creation!
