Hot Milk Cake

Hot Milk Cake has a rich buttery flavor with a hint of vanilla. It is a versatile dessert that can be served plain or with toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar. It is also often used as a base for other desserts such as trifles or layered cakes.

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Stand Mixer

Ingredients

  • 1 cup All Purpose flour plus 2 tbsp
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 2 Eggs large
  • ½ cup Milk plus 3 tbsp
  • 5 tablespoon Butter cubed
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Mix the flour and baking powder in a bowl.
  • Beat the eggs on high until it is thick (about 4 minutes). Gradually add the sugar and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and mix well.
  • Add the flour mixture gradually until they are well combined and smooth.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the milk and the butter. Heat the mixture in low flame until the butter melts and the milks bubbles up on the sides.
  • Add this hot milk carefully into the batter and beat until combined.
  • Pour the batter into a well greased 8 x 8 pan and bake for about 25 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. My cake started browning at the top at about 12 minutes and I had to cover the top of the pan with a foil to prevent it from burning.
