Steps
- 1
Make the Sponge Cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). In a mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until the mixture triples in volume. At this point, add the vanilla extract. Stop the mixer and gently fold in the sifted flour.
- 2
Once everything is combined, pour the batter into a greased or oiled baking pan.
- 3
Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a thin knife; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
- 4
Remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely.
- 5
Make the Milk Soak: In a blender, combine the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream.
- 6
Slice the cake in half horizontally using a serrated knife.
- 7
Place the first cake layer back in the pan and pour half of the three milks mixture over it.
- 8
Spread a layer of whipped cream on top.
- 9
Place the second cake layer on top and soak with the remaining milk mixture.
- 10
Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes, or overnight if possible.
- 11
Remove from the pan and cover with the remaining whipped cream.
- 12
Decorate with fresh fruit of your choice.
