1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until the batter is smooth.
5. Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the
center comes out clean.
6. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack.
7. Once the cake is cooled, spread a generous layer of arequipe (dulce de leche) over the top.
8. In a separate bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the arequipe layer.
9. Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the whipped cream.
10. Slice and serve this delightful Arequipe Cake to your guests and watch them fall in love with its heavenly taste.
