- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan liberally until coated. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Separate eggs. Beat egg yolks with 3/4 cup sugar on high speed until yolks are pale yellow. Stir in milk and vanilla. Pour egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir very gently until combined. Beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. With the mixer on, pour in remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until egg whites are stiff but not dry. Fold egg white mixture into the batter very gently until just combined. Pour into prepared pan and spread to even out the surface. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Turn cake out onto a rimmed platter and allow to cool. Combine condensed milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream in a small pitcher. When cake is cool, pierce the surface with a fork several times. Slowly drizzle all but about 1 cup of the milk mixture—try to get as much around the edges of the cake as you can. Allow the cake to absorb the milk mixture for 30 minutes. To ice the cake, whip 1 pint heavy cream with 3 tablespoons of sugar until thick and spreadable. Spread over the surface of the cake. Decorate cake with whole or chopped maraschino cherries. Cut into squares and serve.

- 1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13? non stick baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and lay the bottom with parchment paper, set aside. 2) Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and set aside. 3) In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and ? cup of sugar, add the egg yolks and vanilla and mix on medium speed for about 3 minutes or until the mixture becomes thick and very pale. Meanwhile, in another bowl, whisk the egg whites until they develop stiff peaks 4) Add half of the milk along with half of the dry ingredients and mix them just enough to incorporate (don?t over mix) add in the remaining milk and dry ingredients and mix everything together. 5) Fold the whipped egg whites into the batter making sure to do it gently so you don?t deflate the egg whites. 6) Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 7) Let the cake cool for about 20 minutes and remove to a platter (make sure the platter has high edges because the milk mixture will run out the sides as you pour it on top) 8) Pierce the cake all over the top with a fork and set aside. 9) In a large measuring cup, whisk together the 1/4 cup of milk, sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk, pour this mixture slowly all over the top of the cake so that it all soaks in the tender sponge. 10) Let that sit for a about 20 to 30 minutes so that the milk mixture really soaks in and then move on to making the whipped cream topping. 11) In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, add the heavy cream and whisk to form soft peaks, add the powder sugar and continue to whisk until stiff peaks form. 12) Spread the whipped cream all over the top of the cake and decorate with maraschino cherries.
