Tres Leches

      I couldn't believe myself that this is my 100th post. Looks like that's a long travel of learning, cooking and it feels great to look back.

Tres Leches, I would say is Queen of cakes. One of the yummy cake I have had.
Very simple to make too.

Ingredients :

Eggs - 4

All purpose flour - 2 and 1/4 cup

Sugar - 1.5 cup

Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp

Baking powder - 1.5 tsp

Salt - 3/4 tsp

Cold water - 3/4 cup

For the milk :

Evaporated milk - 2, 12 oz can

Condensed milk - 2, 14 oz can

Heavy whipping cream - 2, 16 oz 

Method :

1. Mix all purpose flour, salt, baking powder.

2. Add  eggs and best them until fluffy.

3. Add sugar little by little and beat nicely.

4. Mix vanilla essence in cold water.

5. Add cold water and flour mixture in parts and beating in between.

6. Pour it in a 9 by 13 bowl.

7. Preheat the oven for 325 degree .

8. Put it in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes clean.

9. Add all the milk together. Mix them well.

10. Once the cake is done, take it and put it outside for 5 minutes.

11. Start poking holes in the cake very close to each other while the cake is still hot as shown in 7th picture.

12. Start pouring the milk mixture on top of the cake while the cake is still hot.

13. The cake will absorb most of the milk. Even if there are milk floating, it's still ok.

14. For me, only 1/2 cup milk was left and I used it while serving.

15. Put this in the refrigerator for an overnight.

16. Make pieces and you can decorate it with whipping cream on top.

I tell you, it's so yummy. It's very rich too. Once in a while it's worth an extra mile walk for having it.

Enjoy the joy of cooking.
