Separate the egg whites from the yolks, which should be at room temperature. In a bowl place the yolks and beat them with half the sugar until white. Then we add the vanilla essence, the milk. Mix well and when everything is incorporated add the flour by spoonfuls until it is finished.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks, when they are doubling in size, add the sugar little by little. Once they are very firm, pass this mixture in two parts to the mixture of the yolks. Mix with encircling movements to prevent the dough from falling.
