    This will probably get lost in the comments but Josh, if your stand mixer can’t beat that amount of eggs, have you tried adjusting the stand height? There’s a screw on the stand along the column that holds the bowl that you can tighten or loosen to adjust the height of the bowl. You should be able to get your attachment very close to the bottom

      You can also buy a smaller bowl and whip combo from kitchenaid that fits on the bowl lift mixer. Call kitchenaid or search their website with your model number. My 6 qt mixer is too big for egg whipping too, but the 3.5 qt bowl works perfectly.

      Ikr? I'm Indonesian and my family never really liked cakes until we started buying tres leches cakes from the local pastelería, and all of a sudden you have my grandma asking for seconds! My two biggest complaints about traditional cakes are dry cakes and overly sugary/ heavy frosting, and you never have to worry about those with tres leches cakes hehe. Also theyre surprisingly not too sweet!

    My grandmother always made dulce de liche by taking cans of condensed milk, putting them in a heavy bottomed pot. Covering them with water and bring it to a rolling boil and let boil for four hours. Adding more water as needed. Let them completely cool and then open. 💥 bam. Dulce de Liche. Or, granny’s caramel as we call it. Lol
    Ps. Fun fact if you don’t let them cool before opening the cans will explode. It will be a mess and you will be finding caramel in every corner of your kitchen forever. It’s easier to just move instead of clean it. Also you will burn yourself. So be cool and let them cool.

    Modifications: Used 3/4 cups of sugar instead of 1 cup in the cake -> it was still very sweet which is good
    Results: Cake's honestly a bit dryer than I'm used to..would recommend using a bit more evaporated milk and cream
    Optional Add-on: Plate the cake on a platter with dark coffee or expresso. I know it's not traditional, but it's such a great compliment for such a sweet cake. I had it in a Spanish restaurant like this once..never went back:))

    Cake looks great! I would up the three milk mixture probably about 1/2 cup or 3/4 a cup more just so the cake is really moist. When I make this I always flip the cake out of the pan and poke the bottom and sides with a wooden skewer so the holes go through the side just to be sure that every bite is completely moist and the milk fully absorbs. Also I have found that after poking if you put the cake upside down in the pan the outcome is always better. I like to top with homemade whipped cream and strawberries. We love to add a bit of shaved dark chocolate to the top as well. I’ve never tried cinnamon or Carmel on it before but I bet they pair nicely.:) great recipe 👍

    to all: an easy & bulletproof way of making 'dulce de leche', as we southamericans do all the time: drop a can of condensed milk (closed) into a pan with water, and boil it for 2 hours, a litte more if you want your 'dulce de leche' more caramelized. You can use a pressure cooker and do the same, in ~40 minutes

    My mom used to make the best Tres leches ever. Unfortunately, she passed away in May 2021. She told me that you make the cake and soak it the day before and you leave it in your fridge overnight. It’s a must. She also taught us to put in the milk in three separate steps. The sweeten condensed milk went on first, then heavy whipping cream and 1 hour before you serve, pour on the evaporated milk. The sweetened condensed milk keeps the bottom of the cake from being too soaked and all the liquid leaving the top of the cake. Too often you get served a Tres leches where the bottom is soaked and the top is dry.

If you let it rest in the fridge overnight it would be so much better. Also it's ok if the cake don't absorb it all, you want every slice to be sitting in a puddle of milk

    The only problem I had was with was the dulce de leche, mine took way longer to thicken (probably too low temp) and when it did it wasn't near your consistency and it never got there. It was more grained than the smooth one you have and once it cooled it got hard (kinda like a soft unspreadable chewy caramel that sticks to your teeth) so I had to reheat and add more milk till it was thin enough to spread. Also the video says start your heat on medium low and reduce to medium low so I guessed it was supposed to be medium high and almost overflowed my milk 🤣

    Hi,
    thanks for the recipe. I baked the cake recently and it was delicious and turned out great even if we had to use gluten free flour, because my sister is allergic.
    Also big thanks for saying the measurings in millilitres and grams it's highly appreciated.

    I make my Dulce de Leche in the can.... Super easy and you can choose which consistency you want by how long you boil the can for... 1 1/2 hours is a thinner sauce but 2 hours starts to get a little darker and thicker then 2 1/2 to 3 hours makes a thick spreadable peanut butter consistency and I love it. The thinner sauce is awesome for ice cream because it thickness when it gets cold but the thicker stuff is better for cookies or something warm like a pie... I've made it for my neighbors as a thank you gift and the one lady started asking me every time she saw me if I could get more, she was shocked when I told her that I made it. LoL
