Ingredients
- All-purpose flour (2 cups)
- Cocoa powder (3/4 cup)
- Sugar (1 cup)
- Eggs (3)
- Butter (100 g)
- Baking powder (18 g)
- Baking soda (4 g)
- Salt (1 pinch)
- Condensed milk or cream (200 ml)
- Vanilla extract (3 ml)
Method
- Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly. Add the sugar, butter, vanilla, and condensed milk or cream, then stir until the sugar dissolves. Sift the dry ingredients into the wet mixture a little at a time, stirring until evenly combined. Cover the high-hydration batter and let it rest for 15 minutes for a better result.
- Grease the baking pan thoroughly with butter. Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom, butter it, and place it in the pan. Bake in an oven preheated to 175°C for 35–45 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the cake to test it; the cake is done when the toothpick comes out clean. Remove it from the oven, cool for 10 minutes, then slice and serve.
