Magic custard cake

 


Equipment

Conventional oven

brownie pan

parchment paper

2 large mixing bowls

hand mixer

Ingredients

  

4 large eggs separated

3/4 cup sugar

8 tbsp butter melted

1 t vanilla extract

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups milk lukewarm (105-110℉)

Instructions

 

Preheat oven to 325˚F

Line an 8”x 8” brownie pan with parchment paper

In a large bowl, add 4 egg yolks and sugar. Use a hand mixer to beat the mixture until it’s pale yellow. 

Add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Beat for a couple more minutes. Fold in the flour.

Once incorporated, add the warm milk, stirring to combine.

In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with a hand mixer into stiff peaks.

Add the egg whites to the yolk mixture and gently fold them in. Be sure not to over-mix –there should be some streaks of egg white visible. 

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-70 minutes, or until the top is golden.

After the cake has cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar. You may top with fresh fruit too if you like.
