Molhadinho Condensed Milk Cake

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 22 cm (9-inch) round cake pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed milk, eggs, oil, milk, sugar, cornstarch, and flour. Mix until a smooth, homogeneous batter forms.
  3. Add the baking powder and gently fold it in with a spatula.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before unmolding.
  5. For the syrup, combine the condensed milk and milk in a small saucepan. Heat gently until blended, then pour over the warm cake. Allow the cake to absorb the syrup.
  6. For the chocolate coverage, combine condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes after it starts to warm. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  7. Pour the chocolate coverage evenly over the cake. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles and serve in slices.

Notes & Tips

  • Ensure the cake is slightly warm when pouring the syrup for better absorption.
  • For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • You can substitute granulated chocolate sprinkles with shaved chocolate for a richer finish.
