I made a cake so soft and light it feels like biting into a cloud ☁️🎂 The texture is tender, the taste is rich, and now everyone in the family keeps asking for more 🍰🥰 Sharing the full recipe in the article below 👇
This light and soft cake got its name because of its delicate texture, which feels as airy as cotton. The recipe contains no flour; instead, the base is formed from a mix of cornstarch and condensed milk. That is why the cake turns out so tender and light.
It is a great dessert to serve with tea or coffee, and it is sure to please everyone with its taste.
Ingredients:
– 4 egg whites
– 4 egg yolks
– 1 can of condensed milk
– 2 cups of cornstarch
How to make the cake:
1. Whip the egg whites:
Separate the whites from the yolks.
Use a mixer to beat the whites until they form stiff peaks. The mixture should become fluffy and hold its shape.
Set the whipped whites aside.
2. Make the batter:
In a separate bowl, mix the yolks, condensed milk, and cornstarch.
Stir until you get a smooth, creamy mixture.
3. Combine the mixtures:
Carefully add the whipped egg whites to the yolk mixture.
Mix gently with a spatula, moving from the bottom up, so the batter stays airy.
4. Bake the cake:
Grease a baking dish with butter and lightly sprinkle it with cornstarch.
Pour the batter into the dish.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes until the top becomes golden.
Check if the cake is ready by inserting a toothpick. If it comes out dry, the cake is done.
How to serve and store:
The cake can be served warm or cold. Top it off with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of condensed milk for an extra burst of flavor.
Store the cake in an airtight container to keep it soft.
Why this cake is special:
It does not contain flour. It is made only with cornstarch, which makes it light and tender.
It is very soft and airy because of the whipped egg whites.
It is easy to make, but looks elegant when served.
