Make it a Tres leches cake


What you’ll need:

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 can of evaporated milk
  • strawberries
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 tub of whip cream
  • ground cinnamon

Bake the vanilla cake recipe listed above. While you wait for it to fully cool off in a bowl mix the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and your choice of milk. Once the cake is cooled, poke holes all over the cake with a fork, then pour the mixture over the cake. Cover in plastic wrap and place in the fridge over night, or a few hours giving it time to soak up the mixture. Take out of the fridge and cover the top with a smooth layer of whip cream and sprinkle cinnamon over the top. Serve with strawberries or you can also decorate the top of the cake with them.
