I love to also add strawberries on top when I have them on hand 🍓🍓🍓
Have you ever had this cake?
Do you add anything special on top?
Raspberry 's and sliced blanched almonds.
Hello, I’m watching your video bc I want to make this cake!! HOWEVER!! Just some advice in case this helps you or anyone who else can relate. Please delete your background music, your voice is beautiful enough, but I’m listening to the recipe and I can’t stand the music lol just some inside. I MEAN THIS RECEPTIVITY.
Hi! I hope you like the recipe anyway lol I will take that into consideration for future videos 😆 I do have a short on my channel with the same recipe different song if that helps 😅
ruclips.net/user/shortsRLmlv99vgxw?si=AJX8v3_D1u5HV1xw
Agree 👍 😊
Girl bye, the music isn’t even that loud. Stop telling people how to make their videos.
@@Chappis91 exactly agree 👍

Super.easy!!!! Muchas gracias!!!! My favorite.cake ever ever!!!!
Yes so easy and yummy! Thanks for watching 💕
Nice & easy I'll definitely try this!
Hope you love it! I just made a pumpkin version this week, so yummy 🤤 I’ll be posting it soon!
My cake came out perfect! Thank you 😘
Yay 😄 So happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Hi thank you for your recipe, what size is your pan?
I use a 9X13. However I have used a disposable pan and those are slightly different maybe 8X12ish and that works too!
@@readylisettego thank You 💕
I don’t know what I did wrong but I made a strawberry tres leche cake for the first time ever making tres leche and I used 1 can evaporated milk 1 can condensed and 1cup of milk. It was just like slop it was so wet it didn’t even cut like a piece of cake it was just a wet messy disaster. I let it set for at least 6 hours or more with the milk. Any advice? Thank you
Was it a regular size cake mix? About 15-18 oz mix in a 9X13 pan?
@@readylisettego yes it was in a 13x9 cake pan made with a strawberry cake mix I believe it was Duncan Hines.
@@LauraGarcia-ub9xp hmm I’ve never had that happen to me, so I’m not sure why 🤔 did you cook the cake and then let it cool for a bit before adding the milk?
I’ve never used a strawberry cake mix for it but I don’t see why that would be that different.
@@readylisettegoyes it was completely cooled. But after I commented I went to check the cake again I was just going to toss it but now it seems a little less soggy after sitting in the fridge for two days. Maybe 7 hours wasn’t long enough.
i think its because she says to put the whipped cream on top when ur supposed to let it sit and then put it on afterwards
Made this and my fam loved it. No crumbs left. Thanks so much for recipes. 💕
So happy you and your family enjoyed it 💕💕
Hi, I'm new at this. What size square pan was that? Did you make the cake mix as per back of box? No extra egg? Water not milk? Oil not butter? Again, I'm new at this.
Hi, that is a 13 by 9 pan. Sorry that was not more clear in the video!
For this recipe I make the cake exactly as the box instructs. I use the water, oil, eggs as it says on the box.
Hope that answers your questions!
@@readylisettego Yes You answer mine questions, thank you for replying.
You’re welcome!
Hope you love the cake 😄
What is your baking pan size?
Hi looks really yummy. Do we wait till the cake cools before adding the Milks
Yes, I do let it cool at least like 30 minutes, but since you are going to put it in the fridge right after so it doesn’t have to be completely cool.
@@readylisettego thank you so much for replying ❤️
@@ayatihmud5009 of course 😊anytime!
Making this for my sons birthday.
Yay 🙌 Hope you and your family love it!
I'm making this for part of our Father's Day celebration tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!!
Yay! I hope you enjoyed it with your family 😄
@@readylisettego Honestly, it was a huge hit with everyone. I will be making it again and again. My family says thank you!!
@@Donnaquilt aww I’m so happy to hear that! You made my day 😄
Be careful some whipped toppings have COCONUT OIL in them.
Thanks for sharing!
Yes, always read the ingredients if you or anyone you’re cooking for has any allergies!
I made this for my birthday, and I used ube condensed milk. I can't wait to eat it.
Oh that’s cool, So was it purple?
@@readylisettego It came out purple, slightly brown. I think ube cake mix also exists, so I think next time I'll do ube ube tres leches. The condensed milk already had a coconuty flavor to it. Then I added the essence, coconut shavings and strawberries. It was so good. Thank you for your video.
@@dreamy4643 that sounds great! I should try that version one day!
Thank You So Much For Your Recipe I Will Do This Next Month Just For A Brunch Party
Thanks for watching 😄 hope you love it!
I make mine like this except I don't use any coconut milk/ flavor and I use whipping cream and a dash of cinnamon for the top😊
Yum 😋 I love it with cinnamon too! And homemade whipped cream is the best if you have a little extra time to make it 😄
Any feed back from some one who made this after watching Theo video
Hi Philip, thanks for watching! If you read through the comments there are a few people who made it after watching and loved how it turned out! Hope you do as well!
Hi Lisett.Hope I got your name right .. Thank you for the response..
@@philipchang4453 I try to respond to all the comments if possible, so if you have any questions on any of my videos feel free to ask questions in the comments! Hope you have a good day!
Some people cut the edges off before pouring the milk
Is white cake better than vanilla cake?
I usually use whatever I have on hand, even a yellow cake would work! So personal preference is fine 😆
How soon after can you eat this? I know you said overnight, but can it be "ready" after 3-4 hours?
I’d recommend 4 hours minimum. The milk gets more absorbed the longer it sits. So the milk might run out of the cake a little more than if you leave it overnight, but it will still taste good 😄
I Love Easy Recipes Like These 😊❤ Love the Video ❤
I love an easy recipe too!Thanks so much 💖
I absolutamente love this cake
Yummy 😋😋😋 I love sweets yeeeeeet 🐾🐾🐾
Thank you so much! I made this for our back to school fiesta at church. It came out great and was a hit! The best thing was how easy it was to make!!! Terrific tutorial and recipe! I plan to make it for other gatherings as well!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Glad you enjoyed it 😄
Ppr favor pasarlo en español gracias dios te bendiga
Will be trying your recipe but using red velvet cake mix since it’s my favourite cake. I can’t wait to try! Thank you so much for this video
That sounds great 😋 Let me know how it turns out!
How was it with the red velvet cake?
@@readylisettego It was so good. You have to try,
@@AW-lp4vm it was amazing, you have to try. It's a new family favourite in my home.
I have made it with the red velvet cake mix too! Thanks for the suggestion! I have the video up on my channel and I made a cream cheese cool whip to go with, so delicious 🤤
i love this recipes my whole family wants me to make them again
Aww love to hear it 😄😄
Lovele i tryied more than one time Gid bless
Yay! I’m glad you like it! God Bless ❤️
Best tres leche recipe. I substituted the ingredients for sugar free and it was amazing. Pillsbury sugar free cakes are better than the keto ones
Good to know!!
I’ve never tried it with a sugar free mix yet.
Hi how many hours do you let the cake stay in the fridge before you take it out to eat it
I have left it as little as 4 hours and up to 2 days. And it is good either way!
Hope you enjoy ☺️
Over night freezer or refrigerator? Or doesn’t matter. The few cakes I’ve done have all been overnight freezer.
Great video and recipe!!!
Oh also do wait for the cake to be fully cooled after baking?
Thanks so much for watching! Just in the fridge overnight.
I wait for the cake to cool like maybe 20 minutes or so it isn’t too hot when I put it in the fridge. Hopefully that answers both questions!
@@readylisettego yes you did, thanks!
@@Ichi-9 Anytime 😄
Soooo easy my kind of thing
Love it thanks sweetie 👍👍👍🌹🌹
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching 🥰
@@readylisettego Thank you for responding 🙏 🎄🙋♀️
Do you prepare your cake mix as the instructions on the box
Yes! Just make sure you get a cake mix that’s for a 9x13 pan
I'm going to make this for my sons Bday. ❤
Yay! I hope you enjoy 😄
@readylisettego thank you very much
Hi, what size cans were the condensed and evaporated milk? Or do you have ratios for the 3 milks?
Hi! I use a 12 oz can of evaporated milk and a 14 oz can of condensed milk. I believe this is the most common sizes sold, however if you live somewhere different idk if it’s always standard. The most important thing is to have the milks measure close to 4 cups of milks combined and from there you can play around with the types of milks and amounts of each.
@@readylisettego thank you!
@@yaboiharry you’re welcome!!
I’m making this tonight! Can’t wait
Hope you loved it 😄
