Ingredients​

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter-melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 cups milk-lukewarm
  • 1 and 1/4 cups (150 g) icing sugar
  • 4 eggs-separated
  • 1 Tablespoon water
  • 1 cup (115g) plain flour
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Icing sugar for dusting

Instructions​

  1. Preheat the oven to 165°C or 145 °C fan-forced
  2. Lightly grease 8×8 inch baking dish, set aside
  3. Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, set aside.
  4. Beat the egg yolks and icing sugar until pale yellow.
  5. Mix in melted butter and the tablespoon of water (for about 2 minutes) until evenly combined.
  6. Mix in the flour until evenly incorporated.
  7. Slowly beat in the milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
  8. Fold in the egg whites (1/3 at a time, then repeat until all of the egg whites are folded in).
  9. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 40-60 minutes (until the cake is barely jiggly in the center). Baking time might vary depending on your oven or pan you use, but start checking after 40 minutes. If the top browns too quick before the minimum of 40 minutes, you can cover the cake with aluminum foil.
  10. Cool the cake completely before dusting with powdered sugar. Even cooled, it will be slightly jiggly because it has custard layer in the center
