Tres Leches Cake:

2 Egg Yolks
4 Egg Whites
100 gr Sugar ( 1/2 cup )
130 gr Milk ( 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp)
120 gr All Purpose Flour ( 3/4 cup + 1 tbsp)
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp good Quality Vanilla
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Lemon Juice ( or 1/4 tsp cream of tartar)

Milk Bath:

80 gr Sweetened Condensed Milk ( 3 ounces)
100 gr Heavy Cream ( 3.5 ounces)
100 gr Milk (3.5 ounces)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/4 tsp Salt

Whipped Cream Topping:

250 gr Heavy Cream (9 ounces)
1-2 tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

▶ NOTE: Leave the cake to soak for at least one hour. Traditional Tres Leches is served directly in its baking tray with the excess milk. You can either serve it that way, or transfer it onto a platter like I did. It's up to you, depending what texture you prefer.
Top/ serve the cake with berries. This recipe makes 6 portions and I used a 7 inch pan :)




Enjoy!
