Ingredients
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup (120g) flour
- 1 tbsp (12g) baking powder
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine one can of sweetened condensed milk and four eggs. Beat the mixture until it’s well blended and smooth.
- Gradually add one cup of flour and one tablespoon of baking powder to the egg and milk mixture. Stir the ingredients together until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Do not overmix.
- Bake the Cake:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a baking pan to prevent the cake from sticking. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake the cake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake should have a golden-brown top and a firm, yet springy texture.
Notes
- Type of Condensed Milk: Use full-fat sweetened condensed milk for the richest flavor and moistest texture. Low-fat versions can be used but may alter the taste and consistency slightly.
- Adjusting Sweetness: For a less sweet cake, reduce the amount of condensed milk slightly. Alternatively, balance the sweetness by adding a teaspoon of lemon juice or zest.
- Flavor Variations:
- Add one teaspoon of vanilla extract for a classic flavor.
- Mix in the zest of one lemon for a refreshing twist.
- Add ¼ cup of cocoa powder to the batter for a chocolate version.
