What is a hot milk cake?
A butter sponge cake; which gets its distinctive flavor from the scalded milk that is the liquid component of the batter. In this recipe, hot milk and butter give the cake a fine-grained texture, similar to pound cake.
Though this cake is commonly known in the South, it was invented in Chicago. A recipe from Ruth Ellen Church, a former food editor for the Chicago Tribune, was published in 1955. Ruth’s recipe featured a mocha-flavored icing but, today, the cake is typically served bare with a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
