Ingredients
- 4 eggs separated
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups 2% milk warmed
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Line an 8-inch x 8-inch pan with parchment paper or coat liberally with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, beat the egg yolks, granulated sugar, butter, and salt until the mixture is well combined, and it turns pale yellow.
- Drizzle the warm milk into the egg yolk mixture while mixing on low speed. Add the vanilla extract and flour and mix to combine.
- Fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture a little at a time. Do not overmix! Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan
- Bake for 40 -50 minutes or until set. The middle should be a little jiggly when you take the cake out of the oven.
- Cool completely before cutting into 9 slices. Sprinkle the top of the cake liberally with powdered sugar before serving.
