Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced). Grease and line the base and sides of an 18cm round cake pan
Place the egg whites into a large clean mixing bowl. Attach the turbo beaters to the hand mixer. Beat the egg whites on speed 6 to soft peaks, then gradually add in the sugar, beating well
Turn off the beaters and add in the egg yolks, butter, milk, vanilla and flour. Mix on speed 2 until combined then increase to speed 7 and mix a further 1 minute
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake on the centre shelf of the oven for 20 minutes or until firm. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan onto a cake rack

Cinnamon Topping

Brush the top with the butter and sprinkle over the cinnamon and sugar

Tips & Hints:

Makes 1 x 18 cm cake. Be sure to have the butter at room temperature so the butter will easily squish in between your finger and thumb! Cold butter will not beat into a batter!
