Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

While the cake is baking, prepare the caramel topping by melting 1 cup of sugar and 2 tbsp of butter in a pan until golden brown.

Add 1 cup of fresh cream to the caramel and stir until combined. Set aside.

For the milk dressing, combine 4 cups of milk, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1 cup of fresh cream in a bowl. Mix well.
