HOW TO MAKE TRES LECHES CAKE FROM SCRATCH RECIPES

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, add the rice, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, cinnamon sticks.
• Pour hot water into the mixture and stir until the sweetened condensed milk dissolves.
• Allow mixture to come to room temperature. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap then refrigerate the mixture for a minimum of 2 hours. Refrigerate up to 12 hours for a more concentrated flavor.
• Uncover the mixture. Remove the cinnamon sticks and discard.
• Strain the mixture to separate the rice. Reserve the liquid.
• Add the rice and 1.5 cups of the strained liquid to your blender. Blend for 3 minutes until the rice is liquefied.
• Strain the blended rice back into the reserved liquid. Blend the horchata mixture again if the mixture is gritty.
• Serve over ice with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Grease a 10x15-inch baking dish.
• Beat egg whites in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form; gradually beat in sugar until mixture is glossy. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time, combining each yolk before adding the next. Reduce mixer speed to medium and add flour, about 1 tablespoon at a time, to the mixture, beating continuously; beat in baking powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let cake cool for 15 minutes.
• Pour 1 cup cream, sweetened condensed milk, and evaporated milk in a blender and pulse several times until well blended. Pour three-milk mixture evenly over the cake. Refrigerate cake until cold and the milk mixture has soaked in, at least 1 hour.
• Cut in squares and top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and a few sliced strawberries. Refrigerate leftovers.
