We start by preparing the necessary ingredients for this delicious cake. Make sure you have fresh eggs, sugar, soft butter, milk, vanilla, flour, baking powder, and of course, white and dark chocolate for the glaze. The first step is to mix the eggs with the sugar until you achieve a fluffy and homogeneous composition. It is important to use a mixer at medium speed so that the sugar dissolves completely. Continue by adding the soft butter, which should be left at room temperature, and mix until well incorporated. Once you have obtained a homogeneous mixture, add the milk and vanilla extract, continuing to mix. These ingredients will add moisture and flavor to your cake. In a separate bowl, sift the flour together with the baking powder to avoid lumps. Once you have sifted the dry ingredients, gradually add them to the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula or with the mixer on low speed until you achieve a uniform composition. After you have mixed everything well, prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking. Carefully pour the mixture into the tray, leveling it with a spatula to ensure it is evenly distributed. Now, place the tray in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius, allowing the cake to bake for about 20-30 minutes. It is essential to check the cake using a tester, such as a toothpick, to ensure it is baked through. Meanwhile, when the cake has cooled, you can proceed to prepare the glaze. In a suitable container, melt the white chocolate in a double boiler, being careful not to let it reach too high a temperature. Once the chocolate has completely melted, gradually add the oil, stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth and glossy glaze. Pour the warm but not hot glaze over the cooled cake, making sure to spread it evenly over the entire surface. After covering the cake with the glaze, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes. Now, to add an artistic touch, you can draw dark chocolate stripes on top of the white glaze using a pipette or a paper cone. Use a toothpick to create decorative patterns so that the cake looks not only delicious but also attractive. Let the cake chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours for the glaze to set. When it's time to slice, you will have a cake with a fine texture and an exquisite taste. Enjoy!
