250 ml evaporated milk

250 ml whole milk, 500 ml whipped cream

Mix the butter with the sugar, salt and vanilla. Mix in the eggs. Next add the flour and baking powder. Put the batter into a baking dish and bake for approximately 30 minutes. Let cake cool.

Whisk sweetened condensed milk, coffee cream and milk together. Put the mixture on the top of the cake. Cover and let cool for at least three hours.
