How to make it

1. Preheat the oven to 350Β°F and line an 8-inch cake pan with baking paper.

2. Sift all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Mix the hot milk and butter until blended. 

3. Beat eggs until thick for 3 minutes. Add sugar gradually and continue mixing for 4 to 5 minutes until smooth.

4. Combine the sifted ingredients with the egg mixture; stir until well combined.

5. Slowly mix in the hot milk mixture and vanilla until incorporated.

6. Pour the cake batter into the lined baking pan and bake for half an hour or until a toothpick to the center comes out clean.

7. Allow the cake to cool for 15 minutes in the pan and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

 

Beat Eggs until thick

This step is necessary for this recipe to give the cake a thick and fluffy texture. For the recipe, we whipped the eggs until they thickened, then combined them with sugar until light in color and texture. This step contributes to the moist and tender crumb of the cake.

 

Line The Baking Pan With Parchment

In this method, you need to use baking paper to line the baking pan for easy removal of the cake. Don’t have any? Just grease the pan with cooking spray. Greasing the pan will prevent the cake from sticking to the pan while and will make it easy to remove the cake later.
