The Old-Fashioned Hot Milk Cake is a classic dessert that embodies comfort and nostalgia. Its simple ingredients come together to create a moist and flavorful cake that pairs perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a saucepan, heat the milk and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Remove from heat.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the warm milk mixture to the egg mixture and stir to combine.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • This cake can be served plain, or you can top it with powdered sugar or frosting for extra sweetness.
  • For variations, consider adding citrus zest or chocolate chips to the batter.
