There’s something about Tres leches cake that hits home for me. Many of you may not know but I live in San Diego, California for a couple years and those were probably the best years of my life. San Diego is known for the perfect weather, nice people and their amazing food but I adapted to something that still hits home for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rose flavor in this cake gives off such a sweet, smooth aromatic flavor that will leave you wanting more. The reason these flavors blend so well without over powering each element, is because the cake does not require any butter or oil. Since there is not added butter or oil, it adds a lot more richness than your traditional cake. The egg white mixture adds a fluffiness to the cake and dense feel for when you add the tres leches (3 milk mixtures). By adding 3 different types of milk to this cake your allowing the dense cake to soak up all this creamy goodness and leaving you with a moist and flavorful cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eggless Option<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you want an eggless option for this dessert I would recommend using a my favorite boxed cake mix and replacing the each egg for 1\/4 cup of yogurt. You can use full fat or even greek yogurt. My favorite healthy and clean brand for boxed cake mix is called food stirs<\/a>, you can purchase at your local grocery store or even amazon! The simply sweet vanilla mix is perfect for this recipe. If you do use boxed cake mix just continue with steps 7 from recipe below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/h3>

Cake<\/h4>
  • 1<\/span> cup<\/span> all purpose flour or cake flour <\/span><\/li>
  • 1<\/span> cup<\/span> sugar<\/span><\/li>
  • \u2153<\/span> cup<\/span> milk<\/span><\/li>
  • 5<\/span> eggs<\/span> egg-whites & yolks<\/span> separated <\/span><\/li>
  • 2<\/span> tsp<\/span> baking powder<\/span><\/li>
  • 1&\u00bd<\/span> tsp<\/span> vanilla extract<\/span><\/li>
  • \u00bd<\/span> tsp<\/span> salt<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div>

    Milk Mixture – Tres Leches <\/h4>
    • 1<\/span> 12oz can<\/span> evaporated milk<\/span><\/li>
    • 1<\/span> 14oz can<\/span> sweetened condensed milk<\/span><\/li>
    • \u00bc<\/span> cup<\/span> whole milk<\/span><\/li>
    • 2<\/span> tsp<\/span> rose water<\/span><\/li>
    • 2<\/span> drops<\/span> food coloring <\/span> optional <\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div>

      Whipped Cream Topping<\/h4>
      • 1<\/span> pint<\/span> heavy whipping cream<\/span><\/li>
      • 3<\/span> tbsp<\/span> confectioners sugar <\/span><\/li>
      • \u00bd<\/span> tsp<\/span> rose water<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n

        Instructions<\/h3>
        • Preheat oven to 350\u00bc\u00b0F. Lightly grease and flour a 9\u00d713 inch cake pan.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • In a small bowl, combine all the dry ingredients, flour, baking powder and salt.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Separate the eggs in two bowls, one for egg-whites and other for egg yokes.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • In a separate large mixing bowl, combine sugar and egg yolks on high speed for about 3-5 mins. You\u2019ll know they are done, when the egg yolks turn into a pale yellow. Now Add the milk and vanilla to this mixture and give it one last stir.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Gradually add the flour mixture into the egg yolk mixture making sure you stir gently.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed for 5 mins. You want to beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Fold the egg white mixture into the batter gently. You don\u2019t want to over mix and loose the air. <\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Pour the batter into the already prepared baking pan. Smooth out the layer evenly and bake for 30-35 mins.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Once the cake is baked and completely cooled off, poke holes all over in the cake using a fork.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Combine all 3 milks in a bowl along with the rose water and food coloring. Pour this over the cake and refrigerate for 30 mins. This will allow the cake to soak up the amazing rose milk mixture. <\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • While the cake is in the refrigerator, combine heavy whipping cream,sugar and rose water to make whipped cream. You can use a stand alone mixture on high speed for 5 mins or a hand mixture until you form stiff peaks. I used my blend tec on the whipping setting. <\/span><\/div><\/li>
        • Spread the whipped cream over the cake and garnish with dried rose petals or even pistachio. Serve and enjoy!<\/span><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n
          <\/div>\n

          Notes<\/h3>
            \n
          • This cake can be refrigerated from 30 mins to over night. The longer its been refrigerated the better.<\/li>\n
          • You can add a little or a lot of rose water according to your preference.<\/li>\n
          • If you can\u2019t find rose water, you can always use rose essence but you\u2019ll only need a small amount because it is very concentrated.<\/li>\n
          • If you want to make this egg-less, you can use a boxed cake mix and replace eggs with yogurt; 1 egg = 1\/4 cup yogurt.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
