WHERE TO BUY A TRES LECHES CAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Sift together flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl; set aside.
• Combine egg yolks and 3/4 cup of the sugar in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until pale yellow and airy, about 2 minutes.
• Add whole milk and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the vanilla and beat until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl if needed.
• Fold in flour mixture in three parts, stirring well after each addition; set batter aside.
• In a second large bowl, beat egg whites on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
• Add remaining 1/4 cup sugar in two parts and beat until stiff peaks form.
• Carefully fold egg white mixture into reserved batter in three parts, folding just until combined.
• Gently transfer batter to the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
• Bake about 20 minutes, or until cake is puffed and golden and a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• Cool cake completely in the pan on a wire rack. (Cake will shrink away from the sides of the pan as it cools.)
• In a medium bowl, whisk together condensed milk, evaporated milk and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla.
• Pierce cooled cake all over with a fork or toothpick, then slowly pour milk mixture all over cake allowing it to soak in evenly.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• To serve, cut cake into squares and transfer to plates.
