If you are in the mood for an old fashioned and timeless dessert, this Hot Milk Cake is exactly what you need! Made with scalded milk and a few other basic ingredients, you will be amazed by the fluffy delicate texture and depth of flavor this cake has.
Ingredients
- 4 egg room temperature, large
- 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter unsalted
- 1 cup milk whole
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees fahrenheit. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Add the eggs and sugar to a large bowl and beat with the whisk attachment on a stand mixer or a hand mixer for 4-5 minutes, until very pale in color and tripled in volume.
- Add the flour, baking powder, and salt to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the butter to a small saucepan. Heat over medium until melted and then add the milk and vanilla. Continue to heat until just barely steaming.
- Remove the butter mixture from the heat, turn the mixer on low and very slowly pour the butter/milk mixture into the eggs while beating.
- Once fully incorporated, add the dry ingredients to the batter in two additions, mixing on low until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until a toothpick comes out of the center of the cake clean.
- Let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Top with a dusting of powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream and berries, if desired.
