Ingredients

1.5 cups all-purpose flour sifted
1 cup granulated sugar divided
3 large eggs room temperature
0.5 cup whole milk lukewarm
1.5 tsp baking powder
10 oz white chocolate high-quality baking bars, chopped
2 cups heavy whipping cream cold
1 tsp vanilla bean paste or pure vanilla extract
0.25 tsp salt
4 tbsp unsalted butter melted and cooled

Notes

For the best results, use a high-quality white chocolate with cocoa butter listed as the first ingredient. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This cake can be made 24 hours in advance, which actually improves the moisture of the sponge.
