Easy Magic Cake Recipe
- 4 eggs at room temperature, separated
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
- 1 tablespoon water
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk, lukewarm
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Combine egg yolks and sugar in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until pale yellow and creamy. Drizzle butter and water into the bowl, beating until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in flour. Pour in milk; beat on low speed until batter is blended.
- Wash beaters and dry well. Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites into the batter, a third at a time, until no white streaks remain. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until top is lightly browned, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into squares, about 30 minutes.
