Method
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and spray the baking mold with oil. Pour cajeta into the bottom of the mold.
- In a blender, combine evaporated milk, cream cheese, 3 eggs, and ½ cup of sugar. Blend until smooth and creamy, then set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together wheat flour, baking powder, and bicarbonate.
- Beat butter with the remaining sugar until fluffy. Add the last egg and vanilla essence, then incorporate the dry ingredients alternating with sour cream.
- Pour the butter-sugar mixture over the cajeta. Then pour the creamy mixture on top.
- Cover the mold with greased aluminum foil and place it in a water bath. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let cool completely and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Notes
For added richness, you can substitute evaporated milk with heavy cream. Feel free to replace butter with margarine or coconut oil for a dairy-free option. Cajeta can be swapped with dulce de leche if needed. Store the cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze individual slices for up to a month. Drizzle extra cajeta on top before serving for an elegant finish. Enjoy the cake chilled for a firmer texture or at room temperature for a creamier experience!
