Instructions
- Begin by separating the egg whites from the egg yolks.
- Add ¾ cup of sugar to egg yolks. Beat until pale yellow. Slowly pour in milk and vanilla.
- Add the egg yolk mixture to the sifted flour, salt and baking powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter.
- Start by beating your egg whites on high speed, gradually adding 1/4 cup of sugar. Continue beating until stiff, fluffy peaks form.
- Gradually fold the beaten egg whites into the light yellow mixture until the batter becomes fluffy, light, and spongy in texture.
- Bake the dish in the oven at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
- While your cake is baking, whisk together whole milk, evaporated milk, and sweetened condensed milk with vanilla.
- After cooling, use a fork to poke small holes in the cake and then pour the milk mixture over it, spreading it evenly.
- Cover the cake in saran wrap and let it sit in the fridge overnight.
- The following day, whip together the whipped cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla to create a topping. Spread the topping over your cake, decorate with strawberries and cinnamon, and serve cold.
