: I've been making this cake for a few months now and it has become very popular.  It is super easy to make, has a great flavor and texture, is very moist and keeps well for several days.

The batter raises very high, so I usually bake it in 3 inch deep pans.


HOT MILK CAKE

4 large eggs
2 cups sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup milk
1/2 stick unsalted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla, lemon or orange extract or 1 
  teaspoon almond extract.

Preheat the oven to 325 ºF.  

Line with parchment then grease and flour two 8" x 3" layer cake pans or one 9 x 13 sheet pan; set aside.  

Combine milk and butter in a small saucepan or microwave safe bowl and heat until milk is hot and butter melted.  

Beat eggs until slightly thickened, then gradually add sugar and vanilla.

Mix egg-sugar mixture on high speed for 4 minutes, (mixture will be very thick and increased in volume).  

Sift together flour and baking baking powder and slowly blend into egg mixture in three additions.  

Heat milk and butter mixture again until it comes to a near boil.
  
Pour milk mixture into egg mixture and mix rapidly until blended.
  
Pour batter into prepared pans and bake until cake springs back when lightly touched near the center.

Cool 10 minutes, remove from pans and wrap in plastic wrap until ready to use.
