📋 Ingredients:
- 1 can of condensed milk (395g)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (wheat flour)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ cup melted butter (unsalted)
Optional toppings:
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Fresh berries
- A drizzle of caramel or chocolate syrup
🧁 Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan or an 8-inch round cake pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy release.
2️⃣ Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the condensed milk, eggs, and melted butter. Whisk well until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients
Sift in the flour and baking powder. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully combined and lump-free. Be careful not to overmix — the batter should be smooth but not overworked.
4️⃣ Bake
Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5️⃣ Cool & Serve
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar or top with your favorite fruits if desired.
