Tres Leche step by step
- Prepare the cake batter as directed on the package. When done spray the cake mold with non stick butter, pour the batter in the mold but NOT to the top, half way only (the cake is going to rise and you need room to let the cake soak up the milk).
- 1 cake box in a 8in round mold like the picture will give you 4 cakes. A rectangle 13in cake mold will give you 2 cakes.
- As the cake is baking, you can get the Tres Leche ready. Grab your blender and add your condensed and evaporated milk start mixing .... Then slowly add the heavy cream mix for 2-3 minutes until it the condensed milk doesn't look thick...(you can place in the fridge, but just make sure to give it a quick mix before using it).
- When your cake is baked and completely cooled, poke the cake with toothpick (a lot) (so when you pour the milk the cake will absorb it.).
- Important part adding the milk ...I use a strainer when I add the milk to the cake so that foamy part doesn't make a mess on my cake. So for the 8in cake mold 1 batch of the Tres Leche is enough for the 4 round cake just divide the batch equally. For the 13in rectangle cake 1 batch is enough for just 1 cake..
- Pour the milk over the cake slowly .... Then stop let cake absorb and continue to pour slowly... Repeat until finish....
- Once you have poured the milk, and the cake absorbed all the milk you can add the cool whip on top, make sure is completely covered and strawberries and peaches for taste and decorations.... Cover and chill for an hour....
- When serving it will be a yummy, moisten, sweet cake that you can't get enough of enjoy😍🍰.
