Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup Cake flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 4 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup Evaporated milk
• 1 cup Sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Raspberries

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the whole milk. Mix until just combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream.
7. Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes all over the top with a fork or skewer. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
8. Let the cake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
9. Before serving, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the cake and top with fresh raspberries.
10. Slice and serve chilled.
