This condensed milk cake is similar to pound cake, though it doesn’t contain egg and butter but has a lot more to offer. It is equally delectable. It is light and soft making a fabulous taste with every bite of the cake.
Basically eggs are used to bake vanilla sponge cake and pound cake, however, I have made it an eggless version. The sponginess and fluffiness will vary when you are baking this vanilla sponge cake with eggs. But, this eggless version is equally delightful and turned out soft, spongy and fluffy.
Making a soft and spongy cake at home is very easy. Unlike other vanilla cake recipe or any eggless cake recipes, this recipe doesn’t use butter or yogurt. Instead it uses condensed milk, buttermilk, baking powder, baking soda to make the cake tender and spongy. The fat used in this recipe is unflavored oil. Buttermilk and baking soda reacts with one another making the cake soft, while baking powder makes the cake raise during baking giving the cake a light and fluffy texture.
LETS TALK INGREDIENTS
All Purpose Flour – I have used the regular plain flour (maida). You can use cake flour or make your own. Just remove 2 tbsp all purpose flour and add 2 tbsp cornstarch and mix well.
Buttermilk – As this is an eggless cake I have used buttermilk. It helps tenderize gluten, giving baked goods a softer texture and more body. And also baking soda in the recipe it requires an acidic ingredients hence I choose to use buttermilk for the recipe.
Condensed Milk – I have used condensed milk as a substitute to eggs. I have used nestle milkmaid which is a sweetened condensed milk.
Oil – Sunflower oil is used here. The oil adds moisture to the cake resulting a soft and moist textured cake.
Sugar – Only 2 tablespoons of sugar is used because the condensed milk is already very sweet. You can skip the sugar if you want a lesser sweet cake.
Baking powder and baking soda – Since it is an eggless recipe, both the leavening agents are used. Both helps in the giving a perfect rise to the cake.
Vanilla Essence – Vanilla essence adds a nice vanilla flavor to the cake.
Salt – To enhance the overall flavor and helps to balance out the sweetness too.

BAKING TIN
You can bake this cake in any shape cake tin but preferably round if you are using this a base cake for frosting and icing or for layer cake. I have experiment this cake in a new pan which was 6″×2.5″. The height of the pan was less so I got a slight dome in the center which means the tin was a bit smaller. You can use 6 inches pan if the height is atleast 3-3.5 nches high. Or else I would recommend using 6.5 inches if the height is more or else use 7 inches cake tin.
You can also divide the batter into two portions in 4-5 inches cake tins and bake. This option is best if you are planning to layer the cake with frosting. This way your cake will have nice layers.
