Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
- Combine the granulated sugar and eggs in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until light and pale, about 3 minutes. Add the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated. Add the melted butter and mix until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and even it out with an offset spatula.

- For the glaze: Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a large measuring cup and stir in the cinnamon. Then stir in the evaporated milk, half-and-half and vanilla.
- After the cake has cooled for 10 minutes, poke it all over with a wooden skewer and pour the glaze on top. Allow the cake to cool completely, about 1 hour. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours, and preferably overnight.
- For finishing: Beat the heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar and vanilla until it just holds stiff peaks. Spoon the cream over the cake and smooth with an offset spatula. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly oil and line the base and sides of a 20cm square cake tin.
- Put the egg whites in a large bowl with a pinch of salt. Beat with an electric hand whisk until foamy, about 3 mins. Keep mixing while you add 150g of the sugar, a spoonful at a time, until thick and glossy.
- In another bowl, mix the egg yolks, remaining sugar and vanilla (no need to clean the beaters first) for 2 mins, or until pale and foamy. Add the flour, baking powder and milk to the egg yolks, and use a spatula to fold everything together.
- Add a large spoonful of egg white to the cake mix, beat together to loosen the mixture, then gently fold through the remaining egg whites with a large metal spoon (being careful not to over-stir so you don't knock out too much air), until you have a smooth batter.
- Pour into the tin, smooth the top and bake for 40-45 mins until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Mix together the evaporated milk, condensed milk and 3 tbsp of the cream.
- Leave the cake to cool for 10 mins in the tin, then ease a knife around the sides. Poke holes over the surface with a skewer, then pour over half the milk mixture. After 5 mins or so, most of it should have soaked into the cake. Leave for another 5 mins, then transfer to a plate and pour over some of the remaining milk until it starts to leak a little. (Any leftover milk that won't soak into the cake can be served on the side.) Leave to cool.
- Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar together until holding soft peaks. Spread the cream over the cake and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. Can be made and chilled a day ahead. Serve in squares with any remaining soaking milk.
