Tres Leches Cake Recipe

all-purpose flour

tsp baking powder

tsp salt

eggs ((large))

sugar

tsp vanilla extract

milk

oz evaporated milk

oz sweetened condensed milk ((2/3 of a 14 oz can))

heavy whipping cream

Tbsp sugar

berries (to garnish, optional)

Preheat the oven to 350 °F and butter a 9x13 casserole pan. Set up three mixing bowls.

In a large bowl, sift together 1 cup flour, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 salt. Separate egg whites and yolks into the other two bowls.

Beat egg yolks with 3/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer on high speed, until yolks are a pale yellow (2 minutes). Stir in 1/3 cup milk and 1 tsp vanilla.

Beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form (1 minute). With the mixer on, pour in remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat on high speed until egg whites are stiff but not dry (1 minute)

Pour egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and combine gently with a spatula.

Gently fold in egg white mixture with the spatula until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread to even out the surface and bake at 350˚F for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

How to Make Tres Leches Cake Base:

In a large measuring cup (or a bowl with a pouring lip), combine 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream, 12 oz evaporated milk and 9 oz condensed milk. When the cake is cool, pierce the surface all over with a fork. Slowly drizzle the milk mixture over the cake.

For the 3-Milk Syrup:

Pour 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream and 2 Tbsp sugar into a large chilled mixing bowl and beat on high speed 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until thick, whipped and spreadable. Spread over the cake with a spatula then decorate with berries if desired.

Easy Tres Leches Cake Recipe | Three Milk Cake

This is the best Tres Leches Cake recipe! Made with a vanilla sponge cake, a rich milk topping, and simple whipped cream on top! Be sure to check out my how-to video below the recipe!

Tres Leches Cake

eggs

butter (softened (113 grams))

sugar (divided (400 grams))

vanilla extract

all-purpose flour ((250 grams))

baking powder

salt

milk ((235 milliliters))

oz sweetened condensed milk ((397 grams))

oz evaporated milk ((340 grams))

heavy cream ((118 milliliters))

heavy cream ((355))

sugar ((65 grams))

cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and spray a 9x13 glass baking dish with baking spray. Set aside.

Place egg whites in a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer and use an electric mixer or your stand mixer’s whisk attachment to beat until foamy. Gradually increase mixer speed to medium-high and add just 1 cup (200g) of sugar, adding about 2 Tablespoons at a time and allowing about 10 seconds after each addition. Increase mixer speed to high and beat until egg white mixture is thick and glossy and you achieve stiff peaks¹ (much like you are making a meringue).

If you used a stand mixer, scoop egg whites into a separate clean bowl and set aside and carry on using the same bowl for the next step (no need to clean the bowl). If you used an electric hand mixer, just grab a new bowl at this point.

Place softened butter and remaining 1 cup (200g) of sugar in bowl. Beat until creamy and well-combined.

Add egg yolks, one at a time, stirring after each addition.

Stir in vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Using a spatula and stirring by hand, alternate adding milk and flour mixture to your egg yolk mixture (I usually do this in about 4 parts, about ¼ cup of the milk at a time and ¼ of the flour mixture at a time).

Once milk and flour have been stirred into egg yolk mixture, grab your egg white meringue from earlier and use a spatula to gently fold meringue into batter. Make sure it is completely combined and no white spots of egg remain, but use a gentle hand to not deflate the egg whites or over-mix the batter or you&#x27;ll have a dense cake.

Spread batter evenly into prepared 9x13 pan and transfer to 350F (175C) oven and bake for 35-40 minutes.

Once cake has finished baking, allow to cool for about 30-60 minutes.

Once cake has cooled (do not invert it, leave it in the cake pan), prepare topping by whisking together condensed milk, evaporated milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract.

Use a large fork or a wooden skewer to poke holes all over the cake (poke down to the bottom of the cake pan). Pour milk mixture slowly and evenly over cake. Cover and transfer cake to refrigerator and allow to chill for at least several hours or overnight.

Once ready to serve, prepare whipped cream:

LECHES TOPPING

Combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until thickened and you achieve stiff peaks and a Cool Whip consistency.

Spread whipped cream over tres leches cake and sprinkle with ground cinnamon, if desired.

Slice and serve! Enjoy!

Notes
¹Stiff peaks simply means that if you lift the beater straight out of the batter, the peak that forms will not recede back or melt back into itself. It should hold a tall, stiff peak, and if you turn the beater upside down the peak that has formed on the end of it should hold its shape as well. See photo in post or video for visual!
How to Store
Store Tres Leches cake covered in the refrigerator.  Tres Leches cake will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

Perfect. This was my first time making a sponge cake; I think it helps to be familiar with macronage.
My wife told me stop baking or we’ll all weigh 300 pounds when this quarantine is over — but she still ate a piece!

Made it for the first time, it’s delicious! I will certainly make it again.

I've used this recipe many times, always turns out perfect. I add lavender along with vanilla. Delicious!

This was a HUGE hit in my house! My husband’s favorite cake, and he loved it!

My first attempt at making and tasting a Tres Leches cake and it was delicious. My sister who is a big fan said that it wasn’t wet enough so I would definitely add more milk next time around ! but it is delicious and I added sliced almonds on top and the crunch is perfect if you like a different texture.

Loved this recipe!  Cake was the perfect density, it didn't get mushy or soggy and had amazing flavor!

This cake was amazing. My guests loved it, asked for seconds and asked for the recipe. Moist and delicious!

This was great for Cinco De Mayo. The whole fam loved it and it was super easy!

Best cake I have ever made. Family all loved it.

This is my 5th time using and making this recipe. I use 2 to 3 extra egg whites but only the 5 yolks that the recipe calls for. It's a huge hit everytime.

Taste very flourish. It’s not airy it’s doughy. Not the best.

I have my Hispanic friends make it they do it the best they make the best food to gracias amiga

I made this a couple of weeks ago and I had so many compliments! It is delicious and not overly sweet, with a light cake texture. Will definitely be making again!

Awesome recipe! Don’t ever have to buy a tres leches cake from a store anymore! Thanks!!!

Ive never had a tres leches cake before and my fiancé said, screw it let’s make one!! Followed this recipe to a T and WOW, this will now be our WEDDING CAKE. Absolutely divine, light, soooo moist and refreshing. Sitting over night too made it that much more delicious. 😍

Fabulous custard-like cake, I poured Amoretto over with the three milks before the whipped cream.  But it doesn’t need it.  Everyone raves about it!  I would definitely make it again.

How to Make Authentic Mexican Tres Leches Cake

Tres leches cake gets its name because after making a soft, tender cake you poke holes in it before pouring over a mixture of three milks – sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream. The cake is ridiculously moist, beautifully sweet, perfectly tender, and melts in your mouth.

To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or a large bowl and handheld electric mixer) add the 5 egg yolks, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and beat on medium-high speed until pale yellow and doubled in volume, about 4 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl.

Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula. Bake for about 32 to 35 minutes (I baked 33 minutes) or until cake is set in the center, springy to the touch, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.

Using a fork, poke holes all over the top of the cake. I stuck the cake with the fork about 100 times. Slowly pour the tres leches mixture over the top of the cake letting it soak in as you go. Try to pour as much over the cake as possible, without neglecting the edges. All of the milk mixture for my cake soaked in, but if yours is pooling excessively and you have any leftover, the milk mixture is wonderful served in a small ramekin alongside the cake.

Allow cake to cool at room temp for...

Allow cake to cool at room temp for a 1 to 2 hours before covering and refrigerating until chilled, at least 2 hours, or overnight. Tip – If making the cake in advance of an event, don’t add the whipped cream topping until the day of.

Evenly spread the whipped cream over cake and optionally garnish with a sprinkling of cinnamon and serve any extra tres leches mixture on the side. Serve immediately.
