Total Time 2 hours 45 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 0S

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Cooking spray
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
5 large eggs, separated
1 1/4 c. granulated sugar, divided
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 c. milk
4 tbsp. butter, melted and cooled
1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-oz.) can evaporated milk
1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 c. heavy cream
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. cinnamon-sugar
sliced strawberries, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat oven to 350° and grease a 9"-x-13" baking pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another large bowl using a hand mixer, beat together egg yolks and 1 cup of sugar until stiff ribbons trail behind beaters, then beat in vanilla and set aside.
  • In a third large bowl using a hand mixer, beat egg whites until soft peaks form then gradually add in remaining 1/4 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  • Add yolk mixture to dry ingredients and beat together. Add in milk and melted butter and beat until combined. Gently fold in egg whites until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into middle of cake comes out clean, 30 minutes. Let cool.
  • Meanwhile make filling: In a medium bowl whisk together sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, milk, and vanilla. Using a fork, poke holes all over cake, then pour milk mixture evenly over cake. Cover and place in refrigerator until all of the mixture is absorbed, at least 1 hour.
  • When ready to serve make whipped cream: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat together heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form. Frost cake with whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Serve with strawberries or other fresh fruit.

Categories     dessert

Total Time 9 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 45 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 1 (13 by 9-inch) cake

Number Of Ingredients 14

Vegetable oil
6 3/4 ounces cake flour, plus extra for pan
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature
8 ounces sugar
5 whole eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups heavy cream
8 ounces sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil and flour a 13 by 9-inch metal pan and set aside.
  • Whisk together the cake flour, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Place the butter into the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the paddle attachment, beat on medium speed until fluffy, approximately 1 minute. Decrease the speed to low and with the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar over 1 minute. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl, if necessary. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and mix to thoroughly combine. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine. Add the flour mixture to the batter in 3 batches and mix just until combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread evenly. This will appear to be a very small amount of batter. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cake is lightly golden and reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees F.
  • Remove the cake pan to a cooling rack and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Poke the top of the cake all over with a skewer or fork. Allow the cake to cool completely and then prepare the glaze.
  • Whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and the half-and-half in a 1-quart measuring cup. Once combined, pour the glaze over the cake. Refrigerate the cake overnight.;
  • Topping:
  • Place the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla into the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the whisk attachment, whisk together on low until stiff peaks are formed. Change to medium speed and whisk until thick. Spread the topping over the cake and allow to chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.;
