RECIPE: SEMI-HOMEMADE TRES LECHES CAKE

tres leches ingredientsIngredients:

  • 1 pound cake
  • 1/2 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 can evaporated milk
  • 1 cup International Delight Iced Coffee, vanilla flavor
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Directions:

    • Cut the top and sides off the pound cake to make it an even rectangle, then slice it in half lengthwise.
    • In a bowl, whisk together the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and International Delight Iced Coffee. Pour a little of this mixture into a loaf pan.
    • Place one of the pound cake slices in the pan, and with the tines of a fork, poke holes in it.

    • Slowly pour the milk/coffee mixture over the cake, giving it time to soak it all up. Place the second slice of pound cake atop the first, and repeat the pouring.
    • While you can certainly dig in right away, this cake is best if refrigerated for a few hours, or overnight to allow it to fully absorb all the liquid.
    • Spread an even layer of whipped cream onto the cake before serving.
