How to Make Tres Leches Three Milk Cake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, beat 6 large eggs and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until pale yellow and thick (about 5-6 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on medium speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the milk mixture: In a blender, combine 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, 1 cup whole milk, ¼ cup Kahlúa (optional), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Once the cake is baked, let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
- Evenly pour the milk mixture over the warm cake, ensuring it soaks in completely.
- Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cake to fully absorb the milk mixture.
- Before serving, top each slice with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.
