Made this cake twice, and it always came out outstanding! I used half stick of butter and half stick of trans fat free margarine, combination of them giving the cake very nice texture as well as good flavour. Thanks allrecipes.
I’ve had to use this recipe 3 times, twice for a school project and once just for fun, and every time I’ve used it, it’s come out AMAZING! We even won best tasting in my class for this cake
I absolutely LOVED this video. I am Mexican and I grew up eating Tres Leches cake. It has been my favorite for as far back as I could remember. It's almost like an unplanned tradition that Mexican's have with Tres Leches cake. We have at EVERY birthday party. I love it! The taste brings so much good memories. No one in my family or any friends that know how to make the cake have patience or have the need to teach anyone how to make it, so I've always assumed it must've been an extremely difficult recipe. Until I saw this video. Thank you! Now I'm going to go make one :D
What I love about this recipe is that it's the same recipe everyone else has but take 45 mins less to explain ❤️, I don't need to know about your day or how your kitchen looks 🤣 Thank You for the short & sweet recipe!
Thank you for your question, Vianney. You can try using the 1% milk instead of whole milk. The texture of the cake won't be as creamy. Please let us know how it turns out.
I made this a while ago but transformed it into a coconut tres leches cake. It was so good that my brother in law ate half of a 2 layer cake lol my husband ate almost half too. Monday is my husbands birthday and I've been looking for this recipe lol.
I’ve done this cake so many time but I add lechera quemada ( dulce de leche) as the topping instead of the frosting and it tastesss soooo good!!! All my friends and family love it!
Allrecipes is it ok if you leave the baked cake in the refiregerator then put the milk mixture and heavy whip cream after 16 hours becuz i got school and i have to demonstrate the topping and cant make the whole cake becuz my class is for 45 minutes?
Im planing on making this for my boyfriends birthday (hes mexican and had it growing up) id never heard of it before he told me about it so im hoping he likes it :)
Have made this many times, though i skip the cream to try and feel less guilty. A real hit with everyone who tries it and I personally think it's better than my local bakery's version : ) : ) Am of course biased....Many thanks!
@@amysrobloxworld4204 If you want the topping to be whip cream, yes. But you can just buy whip cream. Using the heavy cream and sugar is just homemade whipped cream
Thank you so much for not using a premix cake, frozen "topping" or any other bullshit ingredients. Hope you read comments and take our comments as constructiv critique :) Was awesome by the way :)
I love, love, love the All Recipes Channel! Everything you make is easy and delicious. Tres Leche Cake is my favorite! Can't wait to try this at home :)
I followed this recipe to a 'T'! It was delicious! Never had homemade whip cream before so it was a treat. I would recommend 3 cups of whole milk instead of 2!
Hi there, I want to try out tres leches cake but I'm not sure how I'll like it and I don't have a 9x13 inch pan. Could I make this somehow in a 8x8 cake pan? And by the way, I love how you just poured the milk mixture while the cake was still in the pan!
Thank you for your question. You might have a bit more cake batter left over if you are baking in a smaller pan. Also, since you are baking a smaller cake, it might take less time in the oven. We'd recommend checking the cake after 20 minutes to see if it's done. Enjoy!
Traditional Tres Leche cake as well as my family and I don't not have whipped cream added. I make this bi-weekly. I know some like it with whipped cream but I don't. I'm more of a traditional Tres Leche guy
I like use heavy cream or Nestle Media Crema instead of the whole milk and I definitely use much less sugar in the whipped cream topping 1-2 tbsp Max! Also I like to add pure Vanilla Essence or extract or for festive occasions rum or brandy in the 3 milks syrup, and strawberries for garnish or whatever fruit I have on hand instead of dusting with cocoa or cinnamon AND suga!??r,God NO more sugar please!
I've Made one a couples of month's ago my friend holly and remona martenize is FROM Puerto Rico and she showed me how to make one it turned out awesome
Hi, mike affinito - A delicious idea! To make cupcakes using this recipe, we'd recommend using paper liners for the muffin cups. Keep the same oven temperature, but bake the cupcakes only about 15 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness, and bake 5 minutes longer if the batter sticks to the toothpick. Let us know how they turn out.
It will be fine to put on the cake and leave it overnight, Mike Kulikov --refrigerated, of course. The cake will already be a little soggy because you will have poured the milk mixture over the cake. If you want to wait and assemble it just before serving, you may do that too. Enjoy!
These cake can be eggy tasting with adding 10 eggs like original recipe calls for but this is much better adding only 5 eggs better taste and texture too I bet. 👍
Can you make a quick video like this showing us the freezing process so we can enjoy a slice whenever we want . We always plenty left. Saving us from throwing it away and baking again or going the store and buying it . Thank you
And yes I do realized that tres leches cake only gets its name from the soaking milk. Its just funny the way the video started... "for this (three milk) cake, we will use 4 differnt kinds of milk."
For this cake, yes, Aleena Imran. Heavy cream or whipping cream. They are almost the same thing, just have a small difference in the butter fat content.
what if i use a glass tray instead of that ceramic-like one? last time i did this cake i followed all of those steps but my cake ended up really toasted on the outside and raw on the inside
Thanks for your question, immoralnight98. The cake is baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Here's a tip for the next time you have this question because you can always find the answer by clicking the link at the top of the page to open the original recipe. The link is right below the "Published on" date, or if you don't see it there, click on SHOW MORE and a box will open with it. We'll save you a step now and paste it here: allrecipes.com/recipe/7399/tres-leches-milk-cake/ Happy cake making!
You may use any brand of cake pan, Arati Kulkarni. What's more important is the material of the pan, whether it's glass or metal. Metal is the best conductor of heat, so we recommend that. And for this recipe, it needs to be 9x13-inches in size. Happy baking!
Thanks for your question, Katie Palacious. Make sure this cake is refrigerated, and it will keep one or two days max once the whipped cream topping is added. (Meaning you can prepare the cake one or two days before you need to serve it.) Enjoy!
If you need to, you can, Naifa Kola. Using unsalted butter enhances the cake's subtle, creamy flavor, but it it's not available, it's not the end of the world. Here's a link to the original recipe if you wish to review all the ingredients: allrecipes.com/recipe/tres-leches-milk-cake/detail.aspx Happy baking!
Made this cake twice, and it always came out outstanding! I used half stick of butter and half stick of trans fat free margarine, combination of them giving the cake very nice texture as well as good flavour. Thanks allrecipes.
Thank you for your comment. If you want a very moist cake, you can certainly increase the amount of milks in this recipe. Enjoy.
The cake is made with three types of milk, Mistica 007. The whipping cream is used for a separate cream layer.
Do I put vanilla extract in the Heavy whipping cream and sugar?
Allgood
Best cake ever I tried and my entire family love it thank you

I love how simple but well put together your recipes are. Great channel!
Thanks kinnuali, this is on our UK site, we will add it to the programming suggestions.
Thanks for your question. You can substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the evaporated milk. Enjoy :)
Thank you for your question, Vianney. You can try using the 1% milk instead of whole milk. The texture of the cake won't be as creamy. Please let us know how it turns out.
That's a great idea! Coconut milk is going to add a wonderful flavor to this cake. Enjoy!
Made this today , and writing this comment just after eating this cake ! It’s something very different and delicious! A must try !

“Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time”
Sis ain’t nobody got time for all that 😩
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀☕🐸
You got time now 😆 We all do..
#QuarentineBeLike
Maricela exactly my point
Do you have to use heavy whipped cream?

Sarah Wagner what does it add to the cake?
Sarah Wagner why ?
Why is that? Does it make it more juicy?
I am going to remake this cake in my own special way tomorrow ❤️❤️
If i was to make a larger cake is it only a matter of doubling the ingredients?
I wish I can find a 7 layer milk cake recipe somewhere. This looks delicious though. Will try it soon!
Homestyle whipping cream too?! omg now thats what I call homade :)
Nora Aracely Covarrubias

I wonder what would you do with the finished cake or food you made...
Does the soaking liquid need to be at room temperature?
Do you have to use heavy whipping cream?
Hi can you please do the magical fruit smoothie on your website I tried it and it was fantastic!
Can we bake it in pressure cooker
I like use heavy cream or Nestle Media Crema instead of the whole milk and I definitely use much less sugar in the whipped cream topping 1-2 tbsp Max!

wow look so good
I love when the tres leches cake is moist and wet not dry looking like in this video :)
I've Made one a couples of month's ago my friend holly and remona martenize is FROM Puerto Rico and she showed me how to make one it turned out awesome
Why do you have to refrigerate immediately after the whip cream is put on ?
I ate a piece of tres leches cake today. If I had watched this first, I never would have eaten it.
What size of pan are you using??
Thank you soo much, can't wait to see the video on it!
Hi..I want to try your recipe.
Is there anything you should do different for making this into cupcakes?
Hi, mike affinito - A delicious idea! To make cupcakes using this recipe, we'd recommend using paper liners for the muffin cups. Keep the same oven temperature, but bake the cupcakes only about 15 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness, and bake 5 minutes longer if the batter sticks to the toothpick.

I will be trying this
Can you sub the white sugar with pure cane sugar for the topping?
Katie Palacios They are the same thing, so no need for a substitution. Enjoy this fabulous cake!
This is made in south america as well. Just like empanadas its made all over latin america
can you leave the whipped cream on the cake overnight? it wont get soggy or anything?
It will be fine to put on the cake and leave it overnight, Mike Kulikov --refrigerated, of course. The cake will already be a little soggy because you will have poured the milk mixture over the cake. If you want to wait and assemble it just before serving, you may do that too. Enjoy!
I am tempted to add evap milk and sugar only because i dont condensed milk but i am not. I cooked a regular ass betty crocker cake for my sis in law.
Hii... can you send me list of ingredients with quantities to make this cake?
These cake can be eggy tasting with adding 10 eggs like original recipe calls for but this is much better adding only 5 eggs better taste and texture too I bet. 👍
Can you make a quick video like this showing us the freezing process so we can enjoy a slice whenever we want . We always plenty left. Saving us from throwing it away and baking again or going the store and buying it . Thank you

Don't freeze the leftover cake, refrigerate it covered with a cling flim.

For this cake, yes, Aleena Imran. Heavy cream or whipping cream. They are almost the same thing, just have a small difference in the butter fat content.

Konsuelo Ramírez I tied it with the glass, mine came out good

The one you have use in this recipe has exact corner i wanted to buy one of those square or rectangle pan, so was curious which pan it is
I know the meaning . Tres means three in Spanish and leche means milk . So it means cake made of three milk
Have you considered going to college? I think you'll be an exceptional student with your intelligence
No fucking way man
Is it okay if I make it with 2% milk instead of whole milk
Mitzy Prieto may a we'll use water.
Could I use fat free or 2%milk instead of whole milk
Hi there, thanks for your question. You can certainly substitute the whole milk for 2% or fat free milk. Enjoy!
I'll just buy one from superior
Lol that's what my sister does, too. They make awesome cakes!
Sinneth Blackthorn yess

Can I use 1% milk?

How long does the topping last?
Thanks for your question, Katie Palacious. Make sure this cake is refrigerated, and it will keep one or two days max once the whipped cream topping is added. (Meaning you can prepare the cake one or two days before you need to serve it.) Enjoy!
So this is a cuatros leches then
can i use salted butter?
If you need to, you can, Naifa Kola. Using unsalted butter enhances the cake's subtle, creamy flavor, but it it's not available, it's not the end of the world. Here's a link to the original recipe if you wish to review all the ingredients: allrecipes.com/recipe/tres-leches-milk-cake/detail.aspx
