Directions

Its a eggless version of tres leches cake.

A tres leches cake is a sponge cake soaked in three kinds of milk i.e evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream then topped off with whipped cream . Tres leches means “3 milks” in Spanish. Tres Leches, it is an Mexican cake. The recipe is super easy and contains high calories, this is yum and delicious.

I have used butter and curd in this recipe to make a super soft and light sponge cake. So that, butter cake is able to hold up while absorbing the three kinds of milk. You can replace butter and curd by eggs in this recipe. Use room temperature butter. If you are using unsalted butter then add in salt a pinch.

The ingredients measurement should be accurate. Sifting is very important in this recipe. Sift all the dry ingredients. Do not over mix the cake batter. Do not over bake the cake. Once baked, let cake cool completely.

Use normal milk if you don’t have evaporated milk. Cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

For best result follow the recipe as given below.
