Beat room-tempered butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks and stir in milk and flour mixed with baking powder. Spread out the batter in a pan, 10 x 12 inches, lined with baking paper.

Beat the egg whites until stiff and foamy, add the sugar little by little while beating to a glossy meringue. Spread the meringue on top of the batter.
