Boil 1 liter of milk to prepare evaporated milk, reducing it to half the quantity.

Grease a glass baking dish with melted butter.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup cake flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

Separate 6 eggs into yolks and whites.

Beat the yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until thick, fluffy, and light in color.

Add 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence to the yolk mixture and mix well.

Beat the egg whites, gradually adding the remaining 1/2 cup sugar until fluffy.

Fold the dry ingredients into the yolk mixture, then gently fold in the beaten egg whites.

Tap the baking dish on the counter to remove air bubbles.

Bake in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Prepare the milk mixture by adding 1/3 cup of the prepared evaporated milk, 1 cup sweetened condensed milk, and mix well.

Poke holes in the cooled cake using a fork to help it absorb the milk mixture.

Drizzle the milk mixture all over the cake, allowing it to absorb.

Beat 1 cup of whipped cream with 1 tablespoon sugar until stiff peaks form.

Garnish the cake with whipped cream and fresh fruits like strawberries and blackberries.
