Indulgent Three Milk Cake Delight 😋
Ingredients:
- For the Cake
- 1 cup (200 grams) wheat flour
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cups (50 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup (200 grams) sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Three Milk Mixture
- 1 can (400 grams) condensed milk
- 1 can (400 grams) evaporated milk
- 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
- For Coverage
- 1 cup (240 ml) whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (icing sugar)
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to a tantalizing 180°C (350°F).
- In a bowl, delicately sift together the wheat flour and baking powder.
- In another capacious bowl, whip up a velvety concoction by beating the butter and sugar until irresistibly smooth—this may take a delightful 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one by one, ensuring a harmonious blend after each addition. Introduce the vanilla extract and mix until it dances seamlessly with the rest.
- Carefully fold the sifted flour and baking powder mixture into the butter and egg alchemy. Stir until a uniform, heavenly mass unveils itself.
- Lavishly pour the batter into individual cups or a generously greased, expansive mold.
- Bake this symphony in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cakes boast a golden allure and a toothpick emerges clean from their center.
- While the cakes waltz in the oven, orchestrate the tres leches mixture. In a bowl, blend the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk into a harmonious ensemble.
- Once the cakes take their final bow in the oven, allow them to cool for a brief interlude.
- While still warm, grace the cakes with multiple piercings using a fork or toothpick. This ritual enhances their ability to absorb the tres leches mixture with utmost elegance.
- Cascade the tres leches concoction over the cakes, allowing them to luxuriate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- Just before their grand entrance to the table, whip the whipping cream with the icing sugar until it reaches the pinnacle of stiffness, forming peaks that beckon indulgence.
- Cloak the cakes in this luscious whipped cream, and adorn them according to your whims.
