- Today I continue my FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT recipe series with an easy delicious Tres Leches Cake! You can use the boxed cake mix of your choice or make sponge cake from scratch, but the milk syrup I use is perfect for this cake and I hope you give it a try.

1/3 cup (79 ml) vegetable oil
8 fluid oz (236 ml) water
4 large eggs
MILK SYRUP
12 fluid oz (355 ml) evaporated milk
12 fluid oz (355 ml) heavy cream
14 fluid oz (414 ml) sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
orange peel (optional)
1 cinnamon stick (optional)
CAKE TOPPING
16 fluid oz (473 ml) heavy cream
2 TBSP confectioner's sugar

MILK SYRUP MIXTURE
-In a sauce pan add evaporated milk, heavy cream, orange peel and cinnamon stick

-Once milk simmers, remove from heat and allow to steep for 15 minutes
-Once mixture is cooled, discard orange peel and cinnamon stick
-Then add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract and mix well
SOAK THE CAKE
-Remove cake from pan and flip on to platter
-Be sure to level cake before putting on to platter

I still come back to this recipe EVERY single time I crave tres leches cake because GIRLLLL it's the absolute best. 💯 crown pleaser too 🥰
Me too 😊. I also make a little extra of the tres leches w/ cinnamon and orange rind for coffee creamer. It’s divine!!!
Wow. I made this yesterday and I have to say this has to be the best tres leches cake I’ve had. Wow it was so amazing. All my family loved it. And we’ve had plenty of tres leches cakes in the past as we come from a Hispanic culture. I didn’t want to complicate myself with the separation of the yolks and all those things since my time is very limited with a little baby so I went for this recipe. I didn’t have white mix so I actually used yellow and turned out fantastic.
I used 3 tablespoons of white confection sugar instead of 2
I made my own evaporated milk because I didn’t have any.(just bring milk to boil and let it reduce by about half the quantity took me like 20mins still frequently medium heat)
Decorated with peaches and in the center I did three roses of strawberries(there’s a really easy CZcams tutorial )
Anyway I’m so happy I made this, thank you for an amazing recipe. You have gained a new subscriber ❤️
I made this cake on Mother’s Day! I was a bit nervous because my boyfriends family are Hispanic so they usually buy this cake for every single holiday / birthday!
It turned out amazingggggg they loved it even better than the Bakery at the Spanish store! Thank you for this recipe ❤️🤗🤗🤗 True life saver
You go girl
Pete Martinez thats not what she said
@@pdswrld5200 lol
💕💕👌
That was very sweet of you to try and make something they love knowing you have never done it before. I know that was scary.
Hi, I have been a huge fan of yours for a while. And i just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this recipe. I was so broke, and I made this for my moms birthday after I got her gifts and catered all the other food. I put strawberries and peaches on top with a Hello Kitty toy house on top. She loved it. You saved me and made my mom smile so big. Even ppl who dont like tres leches, like myself, loved it. Thank you thank you thank you! 🎉
You had me at "Instead of 3 egg whites, I am going to use 4 whole eggs."!
Thank you for scraping the bowl... So many cooks I watch don't use a scraper. I almost feel hives appear when they waste stuff like that.
Burnt Toast omg yeah I hate when people do that they wasted so much food
I am one of you..
Sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Dorian Aydin instablaster ;)
@Vance Leon thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Someone asked for a diet version. 🤔 Suggestion: Move along to the next video.
starlighter3 😂😂
Don't make it, and don't eat it
I bought “fat free” evaporated milk on accident and was so mad at myself for not noticing 🤦🏻♀️😂 still came out amazing ❤️
Exactly!
How do they want a diet cake 😂😂😂
I'm pregnant and can barely cook, but I've been craving this. I can't wait to make it tomorrow night :')
GOD BLESS YOU BABY THUMBS UP ENJOY
I'm a young mexican dude & im good at the kitchen hun I can make you a delicious light tres leches cake🍰😋❤
Cleo Alvaro samee I’ve been watching her videos to cook for myself and my cravings
Mama your making my life easier with that box mix! ❤❤❤
You are an awesome vloger & CHEF.
EVERYTHING YOU Make is so well instructed & al l are delicious!
I never thought that It would be possible to make tres leches!!! I can’t wait to try It!!🤩🤩🤩
It's definitely a long process, especially when you make the sponge cake from scratch, but the cake mix version is what I usually opt for. Texturally the cake box version is a lot softer than scratch made sponge cake, but it still works fine. 😊
I used the boxed sponge cake mix & it turned out great. I took it to a 3 cake birthday party & tres leches disappeared first, as usual. Some guests had never even heard of it! I silently wondered "what planet......?"
You’re a great teacher and very thorough! This is my favorite cake and I can’t wait to try it! Thank you!
I made this for Mother’s Day and everyone LOVED it, it was gone so fast. My dad wants one for Father’s Day but double layered lol thank you for sharing!!!❤️
I love how real you are!!! You're like the neighbor I wish I had!
I found that the longer the cake sat in the milk the better the consistency and taste. Today is day two and it taste amazzing ! Yesterday it was a bit heavy and you could definitely tel it was box cake. Today not so much. Thank you for this recipe ☺️!!!
I've made this cake a few times, and my family loves it. I use the Betty Crocker Vanilla Mix or Yellow, (I prefer the Yellow for this recipe) and I dont use 12 fluid oz (355 ml) heavy cream for the milk syrup, I use 2% milk and put a bit of the heavy cream. It also tastes good without the whipped cream topping!
You had me at cake box!
I just finished making this! I can hardly wait to taste it! Thank you!!!😊🙆♀️❤
This looks so good! I think I'm gonna make it tomorrow. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe and your tips.
Yay thank you!! I just put my tres leches in the refrigerator. I’m so excited!! xx ❤️
This! Thissss!!!! The video I didn’t know I needed but so thankful for😌❤️
😋🤤 I’m going to make this as an Easter dessert. ❤️
I have to say, your recipe has been my go-to for making tres leches and the milk mixture with the orange rind and cinnamon stick is out of this world delicious!
Aye aye aye,Mujercita!
You are amazing,with your recipes and ideas!
Thank you!😊🤗👍👍
OMG, this looks so delicious although I don't know how your videos came up in my feed but I'm sure glad that they did because I am loving a lot of your videos especially the banana drink, the chocolate, the strawberry drink and the tiramisu recipe!❤
I made it...yesss i did it!! Omg im excited because my kids said momma this is the best cake ever🥰🥰🥰🥰
How lovely and delicious! Way to go! ❤️
Your voice is sooo soothing!!! You’re a great cook! Keep it up :)
Definitely trying this recipe today! Thank you for explaining it in such a helpful manner 😊
This looks absolutely delicious Angelica. Thank you! 😋
Just watching you make this was AWESOME!!
Omg young lady Thank You for the best Tres Leches cake I’ve ever had I followed your recipe exactly and made this for myself for Mother’s Day treat. I’m 59 years old have never made this and I am impressed with your skill! I will be trying your homemade tortillas next!
Finalmente una receta fácil Gracias 😊 mi postre favorito ❤️
This cake is DELICIOUS! I’m making it again today for the second time! I have been eating tres leches cake my whole life, recently I moved away from my hometown that is very Hispanic and always has tres leches cakes to buy, and am in a new place with no panaderías or anything, so I was craving this cake so bad! I found your recipe and was hesitant to make it because I thought nothing could compare to the cakes back home and it seemed too easy to be true! But I took a chance and WOW! I probably won’t ever buy a tres leches cake ever again, from now on I’m gonna make them! Thank you so much for this!
Tres leches is my fave!! I'm impressed with the hand whipping of the cream!! You got some muscles there!
i’ve made this exact cake every holiday for about 4 years now…. this woman’s cake NEVER fails!!!!!!
Se ve divino, thank you for sharing!
Wow!! Awesome recipe, thanks for sharing!
Wow!!! Very delicious cake yummy thank you for your recipe I’ll try it😋🍰🍰
i take the wooden handle and poke holes in mine. I do this on a German Chocolate cake; poke holes and pour sweetened condensed milk, and caramel sauce over warm cake. when cake is cooled add whipped topping and crushed heath bars. look forward to making this cake. Gale
Omg!! I just saved this recipe. Is it yours? Can’t wait to make it.😊
That cake is awesome..called better than sex cake lol
@@mgnwat so true!
This sounds delicious. Would you share recipe for the German chocolate cake sauce and the caramel sauce
Thamk you👵💞
@@erlindagarica2979 Betty Crocker German chocolate cake fixed and baked according to package directions. When removed from oven and cake is still warm, poke holes all over cake (I use the handle of a round narrow end of wooden spoon; used to use a fork, but it kept pulling up the cake.Just go easy.) Then pour sweetened condensed milk all over the top of the cake. Wait a couple of minutes allowing it to go through cake, then take jar of caramel sauce (my preference is the caramel sauce from Aldi) and pour it over the sweetened condensed milk. Let cake completely cool then add cool whip. Top with crumbled up English toffee - Heath brand, Skor, or the brand of your choice. I allow to sit covered in the refrigerator over night before cutting into. Very moist, light, and sweet! Enjoy. Gale
Oooo! Looks very delicious! I look forward to making this! 🎂🥛
