SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK CAKE RECIPE RECIPES

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.;

Steps:

• Make the tangzhong: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, whisk together water, milk, and flour until completely smooth. Whisking constantly, continue cooking mixture until thickened into a soft, springy paste, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer, stir together 1/2 cup lukewarm whole milk, 1 tablespoon condensed milk, and yeast and let stand until foamy, about 15 minutes. 
• Remove 1 tablespoon of egg from the beaten egg and reserve for egg wash. Add to mixer bowl the rest of the beaten egg, the cooled tangzhong, remaining 7 tablespoons condensed milk, flour, evaporated milk, and salt, and mix on low speed until a loose dough forms. 
• Increase mixer speed to medium until a smooth dough forms, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl, increase mixer speed to medium-high, and mix for 3 minutes more. Continue beating on medium-high speed and begin to add in butter gradually. Continue beating on medium-high speed until dough pulls away from sides of bowl, 12 to 15 minutes more, scraping bowl down twice more. (Be careful—you might have to hold your mixer in place to avoid it sliding off the counter!)
• Cover bowl and let rest until almost doubled in size, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes.
• Punch down dough and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough into three equal pieces. Flatten each piece of dough with your hands into a ½”-thick rectangle, then press into a letter-fold: starting with the short end, take the top ⅓ of the rectangle and fold towards the middle, then take the bottom ⅓ of the rectangle and fold towards the middle. Turn dough 90°, press dough out into a large rectangle again, and repeat the letter-fold. Finally, starting with the shorter side of the rectangle, roll each dough into a tight coil. 
• Butter a 9"-x-5" loaf pan. Place each piece of dough seam-side down into prepared pan and let proof until slightly more than doubled in size, about 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. 
• Preheat oven to 375° 20 minutes before baking. In a small bowl, whisk together egg wash ingredients. Brush top of proofed loaf evenly with egg wash.
• Bake until deeply golden brown on top and internal temperature of loaf reaches 195°, 45 to 50 minutes. (If the top of the loaf is getting too dark, cover loosely with foil after 25 minutes.)
• Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto cooling rack. Let loaf cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.
