Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup flour and 3 tablespoons sugar.
Cut in ⅓ cup butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs and starts to cling.
Pat in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan.
For the filling, beat the 1¼ cup sugar and ¾ cup butter until combined.
Beat in the corn syrup and egg just until combined.
Add the 1 cup flour and evaporated milk alternately, beating just until combined (batter will appear slightly curdled).
Pour into crust-lined pan and bake for about 35 minutes, or until cake is nearly firm when you shake it.
Let cool in pan on a wire rack.
Remove to a serving plate, sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar, if you like.
