Tres Leches

I'll never forget the first time I had a three milk cake. It was in the second year of my high school Spanish class. My teacher's friend brought one for the whole class to try and I fell in love it. Now I make it during every special occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 1 White cake box of cake mix (I use Duncan Hines)
  • 1 14oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 12oz. can of evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup of whole milk
  • 1 16oz. bowl of cool whip topping

Procedure:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Grease and flour one 9x13 in. baking pan.
  3. Follow the directions on the box of cake mix and make a two layer cake.
  4. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
  5. After cake is done, remove it from the pan and place on a rack to cool.
  6. When cool, pierce the cake several times with a fork. (This allows the milk mixture to soak into the cake evenly.)
  7. Combine the whole milk, evaporated milk, and condensed milk together.
  8. Pour the milk mixture over the top of the cooled cake.
  9. Spread the cool whip over the top of the cake. (Be sure to keep the cake refrigerated.
  10. Enjoy!

Note: You can add any type of fruit or nuts you want on top of the cake right before you serve it.
