Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk canned
- 12 oz evaporated milk canned
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- 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.
- In a separate bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream.
- Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and pierce the top all over with a fork.
- Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, making sure to evenly distribute it.
- Let the cake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the milk mixture to soak in.
- Serve the Tres Leches Cake chilled, and top with whipped cream and fresh fruit if desired.
- Enjoy!
