Number Of Ingredients 11

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus 1 tablespoon for pan
1/2 cup sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon red-wine vinegar
Grated zest and juice of 1 lime

Steps:

Cake:Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with 1 tablespoon butter.
In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat remaining 2 sticks butter with sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a small bowl, whisk together condensed milk and vanilla; add to mixer bowl and beat until combined. Remove bowl from mixer. Using a spatula, gently stir in flour, baking powder, and salt. Transfer to prepared pan.
Bake until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cake cool in pan 15 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter and let cool completely.
Glaze:Bring condensed milk, vinegar, and lime zest and juice to a simmer in a medium saucepan; cook 1 minute. Remove from heat and pour over cake.
