Easter Tres Leches Cake
Easter Tres Leches Cake is a delicious and moist dessert that is perfect for your Easter celebration. This cake is made with three types of milk, giving it a rich and creamy texture that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
To make this Easter Tres Leches Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 5 large eggs, separated
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Whipped cream and fresh berries, for garnish
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the milk and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Gradually add in the flour mixture, stirring until just combined.
In another large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the tres leches mixture. In a large bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream. Once the cake is finished baking, use a fork to poke holes all over the top of the cake. Pour the tres leches mixture over the cake, making sure to cover the entire surface. Let the cake cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the cake to absorb the milk mixture.
When ready to serve, top the cake with whipped cream and fresh berries for a beautiful and delicious presentation. This Easter Tres Leches Cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends, and is the perfect way to celebrate the holiday.
