Preparation of Turkish Milk-Soaked Cake:

Preparing the Caramel:

1. Dissolve the cornstarch in cold liquid milk in a small bowl, stirring until the cornstarch dissolves completely.
2. Place the sugar in a suitable pot over low heat until it turns into caramel.
3. Gradually add the butter while stirring continuously until fully melted, then slowly pour in the liquid cream, stirring constantly.
4. Add the cornstarch-milk mixture to the caramel, and continue stirring until the mixture thickens and reaches a creamy consistency.
5. Remove the caramel from the heat and let it cool aside.

Preparing the Cake:

1. In an electric mixer, combine the eggs, vanilla, and sugar, and blend well.
2. Add the vegetable oil and half of the liquid milk, and mix until the ingredients are well combined.
3. Gradually sift in the flour, continuing to mix, then add the baking powder and blend it with the mixture.
