  3. Fold in flour mixture to egg mixture. Make sure not to overwork mixture. Set aside
  4. In a pot add milk and butter and heat to the beginning of a boil
  5. Pour milk mixture into the egg and flour mixture a little at a time so the eggs don’t cook.
  6. Pour mixture into a 9″x13″ pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 30-40 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow to cool and serve with fruit, whipped cream or frosting

Note: This is a very light cake and will only last for about 2-3 days before getting dry. Pop it into the microwave to freshen it up if needed.
