Tres Leches Cake | 3 Milk Cake Recipe

Tres Leches Cake – aka known as 3 Milk Cake. This is a simple and delightful cake. It’s a Spanish dessert of sponge cake soaked in milk bath, unique, one of its kind, very delicious. It’s very easy if you already known my soft cotton sponge cake, just a slight difference in the recipe. It has completely no oil in the recipe, and well balanced with the 3 milks that it soaked, it brings the cake a different way to another level. Hope you’re inspired. Enjoy! FOR FULL RECIPE, visit my blog at https://gracioustreatz.wixsite.com/bakewithlove/tres-leches-cake-3-milk-cake Ingredients: I am using 7x7x3 square pan - Sponge Cake 4 yolks 30g (2 tbsp) fine sugar 140g (1 cup + 1 tbsp) milk ¼ tsp salt 1 tsp vanilla extract 120g (1 cup + 1 tbsp) cake flour 1 tsp baking powder 4 egg whites 50g (1/4 cup) fine sugar ½ tsp cream of tartar (or lemon juice) - 3 Milk Bath 80g (1/3 cup) evaporated milk 80g (1/3 cup) whole milk 75g (1/4 cup) sweetened condensed milk - Frosting 240g (1 cup) whipping cream (if you like more sweetness, you can add 2 tbsp of powdered sugar. I don’t like too sweet, I skipped) - Garnish/ deco Strawberries Instructions: - Sponge Cake 1. Preheat oven at 160°C / 320°F. Grease and line the pan with parchment paper on the bottom. 2. In 2 large bowls, separate the egg yolks and whites. 3. In the bowl of yolks, add sugar. Whisk well until cream and pale. Then add the milk and whisk to incorporate. Add salt and vanilla extract, and whisk to combine. 4. Sift in the dry ingredients in a few batches. Mix only until the flour disappear. Do not over mix. Continue sifting the flour and mix. 5. In the other bowl of egg whites, add the cream of tartar. You can also substitute with same amount of lemon juice. Use a hand mixer to mix until bubbly before adding in the sugar. Add in the sugar little by little. Continue mixing until stiff peaks form. 6. Fold in the white mixture into the yellow batter in a few batches. Just fold until the white disappear. Again, do not over mix. However, make sure there is no lumps. 7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Use a skewer to do the action as shown in the video to release any trapped air bubbles. Tap the pan few times on the table to further release the air bubbles. 8. Bake in preheated oven at 160°C / 320°F for about 20-25 min. Make sure the inserted skewer comes out clean. 9. Let it cool while doing the next step. - 3 Milk Bath 10. In a cup, add all the 3 milks and give it a quick whisk. 11. On the cake, use a fork to poke holes all over the surface. This is so that the milk will sip into the cake. 12. Pour the milk onto the cake. 13. Let it rest for 30 min to 1 hour or until the milks are sipped into the cake. - Frosting 14. In another bowl, whip the whipping cream until stiff peaks form. 15. Add the cream onto the surface of the cake. Use an offset spatula to level and smoothened the surface. 16. Chill the cake for about 1 hour before cutting, OR you can serve immediately by cutting from the glass tray. 17. Cake is ready to serve. Pipe some simple deco and garnish with any fruits you desire. In this case, I like strawberries to bring out the colors of the cake.
