Cream together 1 cup butter and 2 cups sugar using a mixer with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy.

Sift together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon corn starch, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt, then set aside.

Break 4 eggs into a cup and add 1 cup evaporated milk and 1 teaspoon nutmeg, letting it sit to release fragrance.

Add the wet ingredients to the creamed butter and sugar little by little until mixed well.

If the batter breaks, do not worry; it will come together once the flour is added.

Finish mixing by hand, using a figure eight motion, until the flour disappears; do not overmix to avoid tough cake.

Pour the batter into a baking pan (clip of this step was lost).

Preheat a pot and place the batter inside, covering it and lowering the heat to medium-low.

Bake until golden brown, checking if it bounces back when pressed or if a toothpick comes out clean.
