time, mixing until well combined. Add vanilla extract and mix. Sift the cake flour, baking powder and
salt into a medium bowl. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture until combined
and finished with the flour mixture. Don’t mix too much.
Step 2
Spray baking sheets with cooking spray or grease and set aside. Pour the dough into the cake mold.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-17 minutes or until cooked through (but DON’T CHECK TOO
MUCH – CHECK AHEAD BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT RISE). Remove the cake molds from the oven and
let them cool.

Add the butter, condensed milk and sugar to a saucepan and cook over medium heat until it is all
combined. Let sit over medium or low heat for 1/2-2 hours (check constantly to make sure it doesn’t
burn) until the caramel thickens and turns a beautiful golden black. Pay attention to its thickness and
adjust the temperature to avoid fatigue. Place the cake in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to
thicken before decorating. If you think it’s too hot and doesn’t get too fat, keep it in the fridge and oil
it! Take the caramel and beat it in the mixer to get more cream (not possible)
