Here’s the ingredient list :

For the Cake:

  • 2 ½ cups special cake flour
  • 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whey (buttermilk), room temperature
  • 2 egg whites

For the Caramel Sauce:

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cans evaporated milk (12 oz each)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Instructions:

    1. Prepare Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease two 8- or 9-inch cake pans with butter or nonstick spray, and lightly dust with flour.
    2. Make the Cake Batter:
      • Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
      • Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
      • Add Egg Yolks and Vanilla: Lower the speed and add in egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add in the vanilla extract.
      • Alternate Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with the whey. Start and end with the dry ingredients.
      • Whip Egg Whites: In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, and gently fold them into the cake batter until fully combined.
    3. Bake the Cake: Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely before removing them from the pans.
