Same great flavor, without all of the work! This is a great dessert to serve after barbeque or other spicy foods, and is a popular treat here in Texas. It is far more portable than a traditional tres leches cake so bring it along to your next barbeque or fiesta. If you have never had tres leches cake, expect the cake to be very wet, the three milk combination helps remove the burn from chiles from your mouth. Ingredients:
1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix (supermoist) or 1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix (supermoist) |
1 1/4 cups water |
1 tablespoon oil |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
4 eggs |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1 cup whole milk |
1 cup heavy cream |
1 (9 ounce) container whipped fluffy white frosting |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350ºF. Grease and four a 13x9 inch baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, water, oil, vanilla, and eggs. Beat on low for 30 seconds then on medium for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into prepared pan.
3. Bake 33 to 38 minutes or until edges are golden brown and tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
4. Let stand 5 minutes then poke the hot cake every 1/2 inch with a long-tined fork. Wipe the fork occasionally to reduce sticking and tearing.
5. In a large bowl combine milks and cream. Carefully pour the mixture evenly over the top of the cake. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until all liquid is absorbed.
6. Frost cake as desired. Garnish with strawberry slices.
