Father’s Day Cake

Sift the flour together with the salt into a bowl and set aside.

In a saucepan, combine the milk and butter. Heat over low heat until the butter melts, stirring to integrate the ingredients.

Let the mixture cool, stirring occasionally to keep it homogeneous.

In another bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract.

Cook this mixture over a double boiler until the sugar dissolves.

Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until the mixture cools to room temperature, approximately 10 minutes.

Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and continue beating on low speed until fully incorporated.

Add the milk and butter mixture, still beating on low speed.

Once everything is well mixed, gently fold in the baking powder using a rubber or wooden spatula with smooth, enveloping movements.

Grease a 20 cm (8-inch) diameter cake pan with butter and dust it with flour.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Bake the cake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely before removing it from the pan.

Slice the cake into layers and fill with dulce de leche or chocolate cream.

Finish by covering the cake with chocolate glaze.
