I love making super simple cakes, like my Torta allo yogurt e cioccolato or Torta al cioccolato senza cottura con soli 2 ingredienti and this new recipe is in the same vein; as few ingredients as possible, as little dishwashing as possible, and as much taste as possible!

Note
Alimentazione
Ingredienti e sostituzioni
Per questa ricetta ti servono solo 4 ingredienti base. Ecco come sceglierli.

- Latte condensato di cocco – This is the key ingredient that provides both fat and sweetness, giving the cake its moist, fluffy crumb without the need for eggs or dairy. Use dairy-free coconut condensed milk or try condensed oat milk as an alternative. Be careful not to confuse it with evaporated milk, which won’t work in this recipe.
- Yogurt senza lattosio – Adds protein, tang, and extra moisture, contributing to the cake’s tender texture. Any plain yogurt works well—opt for dairy-free coconut yogurt for a consistent flavor or Greek yogurt if you use and tolerate dairy.
- Farina a lievitazione spontanea – This contains baking powder and makes the cake rise. If you only have regular flour, you can make your own with all-purpose flour mixed with 2 teaspoons of baking powder per cup. For a gluten-free option, use my convertitore senza glutine, but don’t forget the baking powder. Note that this recipe isn’t suitable for oat flour or almond flour.
- Estratto di vaniglia – For more flavor. You can also use vanilla yogurt.
How to Make Condensed Milk Cake
This recipe is super simple to make as it consists just in mixing the ingredients and baking the cake.

Combine the wet ingredients first before incorporating the flour.

Pour the mixture into a pan and bake the cake for 45-50 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C)
I consigli di Carine per la pasticceria
Let me share a few more tips to make it the best cake you’ve ever made!
- Preheat & Prep Properly: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 6-inch pan with parchment paper (covering the bottom and sides) to ensure an even bake and easy release.
- Mix Until Smooth: Whisk together the coconut condensed milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract until completely smooth before folding in the flour. This ensures an even distribution of flavors.
- Gentle Folding: When incorporating the self-rising flour, fold gently with a rubber spatula to avoid overmixing, which could result in a denser cake.
- Misure accurate: Pay close attention to the volume of your condensed milk. Different brands or types can vary, so always follow the recipe’s measurements in cups or milliliters rather than by weight.
- Baking Time & Pan Size: Stick to the recommended pan size (6-inch) and baking time (45-50 minutes) for the best texture. If you opt for an 8-inch pan, expect a shorter baking time (35-45 minutes) and a less lofty cake.
- Cooling is Crucial: Let the cake cool completely—ideally 3 hours or overnight—on a cooling rack before slicing. This helps the crumb set and enhances the overall moist texture.

My cookbook will be out in April 2027 and available in California! It doesn’t have a name or price tag yet, watch this space to learn more soon.
I adapted this recipe to Gluten Free muffins. They turned out really lovely. This is what I changed and added. I used dairy condensed milk ( as that’s what I had.) Gluten Free Self Raising Flour. A rough teaspoon of Baking Powder and Bi carb Soda. With a little dribble of white vinegar. 6 big muffin cakes. They took 23 minutes to cook. I have photos if you would like them.
What GF self rising flour did you use?
Thank you for reporting back! Yo ucan also use my convertitore senza glutine next time to adapt all my recipes gluten-free.
your recipies look great. can’t wait to try them.
Grazie!
Can I use a 6 inch springform pan for this recipe?
Si assolutamente!
The cake looks goodd but my can of coconut milk (condensed) says 250 ml which is 8.45 ounces. That would mean, 1.5 cans for this recipe? I cannot see what the measurement on the can you’re using but when I search it, it gives me the same 250 ml measurement on the same brand you are using.
Yes, you need a bit more than a can if you have the small one!
This is first time making a cake and this was simple yet most delicious cake ever! My none vegan family loved it. Cake came out moist and delicious! Thank you so much for this recipe! We served with it oat milk ice cream.
Grazie!
Excellent cake. I was shocked to be honest. I added fresh strawberries on the top. I can’t wait to make it again
I thought this cake was excellent. I especially love the fact that it is so small and for a single person. It’s a great way to have a cake and not have tons of leftovers. I would love more recipes like this. My one question is how long can this cake be kept out of the refrigerator? It’s so much better when it’s room temperature, but I was afraid to leave it out. Thank you.
I honestly have kept mine up to 3 days in an airtight cake box on the benchtop, but it’s not too hot where I live.
Ciao!
I love your recipes! Can I replace the yogurt with buttermilk?
Grazie mille!
Probably, I haven’t tried so I am not sure how it will impact the texture
I made it and is delicious!! I put it in the fridge and taste even better.
