Tres Leches Cake

This authentic tres leches cake is rich, moist, and melt-in-your-mouth good. It’s made with a light and fluffy sponge cake soaked in a sweet milk mixture and topped with a billowy cloud of whipped cream.

Tres leches cake is a traditional Latin American dessert commonly served in Mexican restaurants. It’s a cake (typically a sponge cake) soaked in three different types of milk (evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy whipping cream), hence the name three milks cake in Spanish. It’s topped with a lightly sweetened whipped cream and a dusting of ground cinnamon as well.
