There's nothing like the aroma of a sweet smelling cake wafting through the house, a condensed milk pound cake! I used to love putting condensed milk in my milo drinks, but since I no longer have any form of added sugar in my drinks, I decided to use up some of my condensed milk in the fridge. Plus, I had all the ingredients in my pantry and home on a rainy Saturday evening.
Condensed Milk Pound Cake
I got the recipe from here
120gms butter
25gms sugar (I used raw sugar)
1 1/2tsp vanilla paste
120gm cake flour ( I just used plain flour)
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking powder
2 eggs (70gms each)
- Preheat oven to 175 degrees. Lightly grease a loaf tin.
- Sift flour and baking powder and set aside.
- Cream butter and sugar on medium to high speed until pale yellow, light and fluffy.
- Add vanilla paste and salt, then cream until mixed well.
- Lower the speed and add the sifted flour in 3 batches until you achieve a smooth mix.
- Add eggs one at a time, and mix until well combined.
- Pour into loaf tin and bake for 1 hour.
Mine didn't seem to rise as high as the original recipe, probably because I substituted the cake flour with plain flour. It had a dense yet spongey soft texture. This recipe yielded a yummylicious cake which I will definitely be baking again!
