Time 1h37m

Yield 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup whole milk
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean
8 cups sliced fresh strawberries, for serving
sifted confectioners' sugar, for dusting
whipped cream, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking pan.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a small bowl and set aside.
  • Place the eggs, 1 cup of granulated sugar and the vanilla extract in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed for 10 minutes (really!) until light yellow and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and slowly add half the flour mixture, then the milk and finally the remaining flour mixture. Mix with a rubber spatula to be sure the batter is well mixed. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and bake for 25 minutes, until the cake springs back when touched lightly in the middle and a cake tester comes out clean. Set aside to cool in the pan for 30 minutes.
  • In a 4-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk together the heavy cream, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, almond extract and vanilla seeds. Using a bamboo skewer, poke holes all over the cooled cake and slowly pour the cream mixture over the cake, allowing it to be absorbed completely before continuing to pour on more of the mixture. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
  • To serve, toss the strawberries with the 5 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
  • Dust the cake with confectioners' sugar, cut in squares and place on dessert plates. Surround the cake with the strawberries, put a dollop of whipped cream on top and serve.

Tres Leches Cake with Rum-Fruit Topping image

Like a genoise, this cake gets its spongy texture from eggs that are whisked until thick and voluminous.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for baking dish
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
7 large eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups whole milk
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons dark rum
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons water
2 cups sliced or diced fresh fruit, such as mangoes and strawberries
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass or ceramic baking dish.
  • Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until butter browns, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla.
  • Whisk egg whites, baking soda, and salt with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Add yolks, and whisk until combined. Reduce speed to medium. Add sugar in a slow, steady stream, and mix until combined. Using a rubber spatula, quickly and gently fold butter mixture into egg mixture.
  • Combine flour and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sift 1/3 cup flour-cinnamon mixture over egg mixture, and gently fold to combine. Working quickly, sift remaining flour-cinnamon mixture over egg mixture in 2 additions, and gently fold to combine. Pour batter into prepared dish, and bake until golden and a tester inserted into center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the 3 milks in a medium bowl. Pour over cake as soon as it comes out of the oven. Transfer cake in dish to a wire rack to cool completely. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
  • Make the rum-fruit topping: Bring rum, sugar, and water to a boil in a small saucepan, and cook until sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes. Toss syrup with fruit. Serve cake with rum-fruit mixture and whipped cream.

TRES LECHES CAKE



Tres Leches Cake image

We added whipped cream and fruit to a classic tres leches cake recipe to make it undeniably delicious. You can use any fruit in season, alone or in combination. This luscious dessert is named "tres leches"-"three milks"-because it's soaked in three different types of milk.

Tips for Making the Best Tres Leches Cake with Berries:

  • Choose the Freshest Ingredients: Use the freshest, ripest berries you can find. Fresh berries will give your cake the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't Overbeat the Batter: Overbeating the batter can make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Bundt Pan: A Bundt pan is the traditional pan for making tres leches cake. It gives the cake a beautiful shape and allows the milk mixture to soak in evenly.
  • Prick the Cake Before Adding the Milk Mixture: Pricking the cake with a fork before adding the milk mixture helps the milk soak in more evenly.
  • Chill the Cake Before Serving: Chilling the cake before serving allows the milk mixture to set and the cake to firm up.

Conclusion:

Tres leches cake with berries is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist, fluffy texture, sweet and creamy milk mixture, and fresh, tart berries, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
