Hot milk sponge cake is a light , fluffy ,flavourful vanilla sponge cake made with simple ingredients and great in tastes.
I have tried a lot of cakes but this is one of the perfect cake that I have ever tried…. Crusty top with soft spongy inside my kids loved to core.. you won’t believe it as the cake got finished in minutes ..
It’s sturdy enough to stand up to frosting and can be cut into shapes for special occasions and also base for layer cakes.
This is very easy to make, no creaming of butter and sugar .just beat the sugar and egg till fluffy then hot milk with butter is added at last to the batter which makes the cake more fluffy … Once batter is prepared directly pour it to the tin and bake it….
Bake as soon as the batter is ready . Letting the batter stand will make it deflate and lose volume.
