Ingredients
3 eggs
200 ml coconut milk
500 ml regular milk
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 small cup of condensed milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar (optional)
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) and greasing your cake pan with a little butter or margarine. This will help prevent the cake from sticking.
Next, in a mixing bowl, crack the three eggs and beat them until smooth. Add the coconut milk and regular milk.
mixing them together thoroughly to combine. If you choose to include sugar, add it now and stir well.
Once the milk and egg mixture is smooth, it’s time to add the condensed milk. Pour the small cup of condensed milk into the mixture, and whisk it in until fully incorporated.
The condensed milk will provide a lovely sweetness and creamy texture to the batter. Then, melt the butter or margarine and add it to the mixture, stirring until smooth and well blended.
Now, gradually sift the all-purpose flour into the wet ingredients, mixing as you go. This helps avoid any lumps and ensures that the batter is silky smooth.
Once the flour is fully combined, pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on the cake to make sure it doesn’t overbake.
After it’s done, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake has cooled, slice it into pieces and serve. The cake is perfectly soft, moist, and creamy, with a delightful flavor from the combination of coconut milk and condensed milk.
How to Make
To make the creamy milk cake, start by preparing the wet ingredients. Beat the eggs in a large bowl and then add the coconut milk and regular milk.
Mixing them together will create a smooth base for the batter. Next, add in the condensed milk, which will provide a rich sweetness and make the cake extra creamy. Make sure to whisk it in thoroughly to avoid any lumps.
Melt the butter or margarine in a separate bowl and add it to the mixture, ensuring it’s evenly incorporated. This will give the cake a buttery flavor and make it even softer.
Then, sift in the flour gradually, stirring gently until the mixture is smooth and without lumps. The consistency should be thick but pourable.
Once the batter is ready, pour it into a pre-greased cake pan and spread it out evenly. Be sure to use a pan that’s the right size, typically around 8 inches in diameter, to ensure the cake bakes evenly.
After the cake goes into the oven, let it bake for 30 to 40 minutes. It’s important to check the cake by inserting a toothpick in the center; if it comes out clean, your cake is ready to be taken out of the oven.
After baking, let the cake cool on a wire rack to allow it to set and firm up before slicing. The result is a moist, creamy, and flavorful cake that’s easy to enjoy.
