Tres Leches is an authentic Mexican cake that is very popular. I am a fan of moist cakes, and I was blown away by this Tres Leches Cake. Tres Leches Cake contains a smooth, ultra-moist crumb. It is filled with a combination of (3) milk and a finely sweetened whipped cream. It’s an authentic Tres Leches Cake recipe, and the very best I’ve tried. It beats any version bought-in-store all day long.
I love simple, crowd-pleasing desserts that come in a casserole dish like the classic Tiramisu, our popular Strawberry Pretzel Salad, and this easy Tres Leches (Milk Cake) of course. Good to bring to parties and potlucks, and are easy to make and delicious. Try this recipe for Tres Leches (Milk Cake), and enjoy it with your loved ones.
