Magic Cake
Ingredients
4 eggs at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
8 tbsp butter unsalted and melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk lukewarm *
powdered sugar for dusting cake
US Customary - Metric
Instructions
·
Preheat oven to 325 F degrees. Grease a 8 inch x
8 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper so that it's easier to get
the cake out.
·
Separate the eggs and beat the egg yolks with
the sugar until light and fluffy. Add butter and vanilla extract and continue
beating for another minute or two after which you can add the flour and mix it
in until fully incorporated.
·
Slowly start adding the milk and beat until
everything is well mixed together.
·
Add the egg whites to a mixer and mix until
stiff peaks form.
·
Add the egg whites to the cake batter and gently
fold them in. Another variation to folding in the egg whites would be to whisk
them in to the cake batter, this is a lot faster and easier. Make sure you
don't fold the egg whites in completely, you still want to see some of the
white bits floating at the top.
·
Pour batter into baking dish and bake for 40 to
70 minutes or until the top is lightly golden. The baking time could vary
greatly depending on the oven, so take a peek at around 40 minutes and see how
it looks.
·
Sprinkle some powdered sugar after cake has
cooled.
Recipe Notes
* To get the milk lukewarm I usually warm it in the
microwave for about a minute.
The baking time can vary greatly for this cake. I've baked
this cake in 3 different ovens and I've always needed different times which
were from 40 to 70 minutes. The oven I have right now only requires about 45
minutes to get a nice golden color on the cake, whereas other ovens I've used
required the full 70 minutes. Test if after 40 minutes to see what it looks
like. The cake is done when it only jiggles slightly but feels firm to touch.
