Tres Leches Cake is a very moist cake filled with a mixture of "milks." It is a favorite Mexican and South American Dessert. I got the recipe from Chela, my housekeeper who is from Mexico. The Cake preparation includes 3 parts: the cake, the filling, and the frosting.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 13 x 9" cake pan with cooking spray (Pam).
- Mix cake ingredients together and pour into prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until knife inserted in middle comes out clean.
- Allow to cool for 20 minutes.
- While the cake is baking, mix filling ingredients together and refrigerate.
- For frosting, whip cream until soft peaks form; blend in sugar gradually and add vanilla extract.
- When cake is done, allow to cool; then fill with milk filling.
- You can poke holes in the cake or use a flavor injector.(I use a syringe since I am a nurse).
- Frost with whipped cream and decorate.
