Instructions

  3. Add the milk and beat until incorporated.
  4. Using spatula, GENTLY fold in beaten egg whites.
  5. Pour batter into a greased 8 inch x 8 inch (20 x 20 cm) baking dish and bake in preheated 325 F (160 C) oven for about 60 minutes or until the top is dark golden. (If after 30 minutes top is already golden, cover the cake with aluminum foil.)
