Ingredients
- 6 medium eggs, separated
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to prepare the baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray or using butter to grease its surface, ensuring a 10x15-inch area is available for your cake.
3
Make the cake by using an electric mixer to whip egg whites in a large mixing bowl until they become stiff and hold their shape. Gradually add sugar to the mixture, blending it in until you achieve a shiny, glossy appearance.
4
Introduce egg yolks one at a time to the mixture, beating them in thoroughly after each addition. Reduce your mixer's speed to medium and gradually incorporate flour into the mixture, adding it in small increments of about 1 tablespoon at a time.
5
Mix in milk, baking powder, and vanilla to create the cake batter. Pour this batter into your prepared baking dish.
6
Bake the cake in a preheated oven until it reaches a lightly browned top and passes the toothpick test, which should take around 25 minutes.
7
Remove your cake from the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes before proceeding.
8
Make the tres leches by combining condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream in a blender. Pulse the mixture several times until it's well blended.
9
Pour the tres leches over your cooled cake, covering it and refrigerating it until the cake is cold and all liquid has been absorbed - this should take at least 1 hour.
10
Cut your chilled cake into 12 squares and top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and a few sliced strawberries.
