Preparation:

Biscuit:

  1. Separate the whites from the yolks.

  2. Beat the egg whites until stiff, gradually adding sugar and vanillin-sugar.

  3. When you get a shiny and firm mass, add the egg yolks one at a time and beat briefly at a lower speed.

  4. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, shortening and baking powder.

  5. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, using a spatula and light movements from the bottom up.

  6. Pour the mixture into a 20 x 30 cm baking tray lined with baking paper.

  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 20–25 minutes, until the biscuit is slightly golden. Check with a toothpick - if it comes out dry, the biscuit is ready.

  8. Leave the baked biscuit to cool for 5-10 minutes, then prick it all over with a toothpick or fork.


Milk Topping:

  1. Combine the sweet cream, milk and condensed milk in a bowl and mix gently.

  2. Pour the topping evenly over the warm biscuit.

  3. Leave the cake to cool completely and absorb the liquid, at least 2 hours, ideally overnight in the refrigerator.


Caramel Topping:

  1. In a saucepan with a thick bottom, melt the sugar over medium heat, without stirring, until it turns a golden-brown color.

  2. Remove from the heat and carefully add the sweet cream, stirring constantly.

  3. Return to a low heat for a short time until the caramel is uniform and slightly thickened.

  4. Allow the caramel to cool slightly, then spread it evenly over the cooled cake.

  5. Return the cake to the refrigerator for another hour before cutting. Cut with a sharp knife and serve well chilled.


Buon appetito!



NOTE:
  • If you are not a fan of caramel, you can skip this step. The cake is certainly refreshing and delicious without it.

  • Keep the cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
