Cake in a frying pan

Cookinero 15 Apr 2025

The cake in a frying pan is easy and very quick to prepare because it does not require baking in the oven. This cake is prepared with condensed milk, which makes the dough soft. The main thing is to let it soak well. The finished dessert can be decorated with berries or syrup, chocolate chips or fresh fruit, but plain powdered sugar is best.
