the easiest tres leche cake ever

I love tres leche cake, in fact it’s my favorite kind of cake to eat. It’s moist, sweet and perfect if you ask me and the best part about this cake is how easy it is to make. Okay, that last line rhymed and I promise you it was unintentional. I have never tried making this deliciousness until now because I always thought it was one of those super complicated recipes to make and this momma don’t have time for that. I’m also not a baker by heart, like I rather cook  a delicious meal then bake anything. I know, I know, I suck but it is what it is. My little sister on the other hand, she’s a baker at heart and soul and she enjoys it!

So, every Christmas we have my little sister (who is taller than me) make this super yummy tres leche cake. Everyone from my family has an assigned dish to bring on Christmas Eve, I usually get stuck with an appetizer which I don’t mind actually. We try making other desserts, you know to mix things up a bit and not have the same dessert every year, but the public speaks and they always choose this tres leche cake. It honestly “sells” out with my family and if you aren’t quick enough to grab a piece, you are left crying in a corner because nobody is sharing.

So, this year I finally asked my sister to help me make her very famous tres leche cake and she said yes of course! I mainly wanted her to show me her ropes because I wanted to share it with my YouTube subscribers (spanish channel) and also share it with you! So, you are in luck my friend because the secret is out and me and you will be making this super easy and super delicious tres leche cake more frequent then we think. Are you ready to make the easiest tres leche cake ever?

Me encanta el bizcocho de tres leche, de hecho es mi bizcocho  favorite  para comer. Es húmedo, dulce y perfecto si me preguntas, y la mejor parte de este pastel es lo fácil que es de hacer. De acuerdo, esa última línea rimaba y prometo que no fue intencional. Nunca he intentado hacer esta delicia porque yo siempre pensé que era una de esas recetas muy complicadas de hacer y esta mamá no tengo tiempo para eso. Tampoco soy amante de hacer postres, prefiero cocinar una deliciosa comida que hornear y hacer postres. Lo sé, lo sé, soy muy rara, pero es lo que es. Mi hermana pequeña, por otro lado, ella le encanta hacer postres y lo disfruta!


Por lo tanto, todas las Navidades mi pequeña hermana (que es más alta que yo) hace este super delicioso bizcocho de Tres leche. Todo el mundo de mi familia tiene un plato asignado para llevar en la víspera de Navidad, por lo general yo hago el aperitivo. Tratamos de hacer otros postres, usted sabe para mezclar las cosas y no tener el mismo postre todos los años, pero el público habla y siempre elegin este biszcocho de tres leche. Honestamente se “vende” como pan caliente con mi familia y si usted no es lo suficientemente rápida para tomar in pedazo, se va a  quedar llorando en un rincón porque nadie va a compartir.


Así, que este año finalmente le pedi a mi hermana para ayudarme a hacer su muy famoso bizcocho Tres leche y ella dijo que sí, por supuesto! Yo quería sobre todo que me muestre sus cuerdas porque quería compartirlo con mis suscriptores de YouTube (canal español) y también compartirlo con usted! Por lo tanto, estás de suerte mi amiga porque el secreto está fuera y yo y usted vamos hacer este rico pastel  más frecuentes de lo que pensamos. ¿Estás lista para hacer el bizcocho  más fácil que nunca de tres leche?

tghe easiest tres leche cake ever

This recipe is a little different than the traditional way to make tres leche because It has fruit cocktail in it, my sister got the idea from a blog about 4 years ago(she doesn’t remember the name) and it also contains regular milk instead of heavy cream. Also the traditional tres leche cake has a layer of whipped cream on top but I skipped that part and just focused on the fruits to decorate the cake with. Now, what makes this cake the easiest tres leche cake ever? I used boxed cake mix instead of making the cake from scratch, Amazeballs, right!? It honestly saves time and it still taste so so good, trust me girl on this one!

I love that you can make this cake in literally minutes and if you have any left over to you can enjoy it the next day or the day after the next (do I make sense? haha!). Make sure you have it in the refrigerator because it does contain milk and if you leave it outside overnight, it may go bad.

Esta receta es un poco diferente a la receta tradicional, ya que cuenta con cóctel de frutas en ella, mi hermana tuvo la idea de un blog hace aproximadamente 4 años (que no recuerda el nombre) y también contiene la leche regular envez de leche pesada. También el bizcocho tres leche tradicional tiene una capa de crema batida en la parte superior, pero salté esa parte y sólo use las frutas para decorar el pastel con. Ahora, lo que hace que este pastel de la torta tres leche sea el más fácil ? Solía mezcla de pastel en caja en vez de hacer el pastel desde cero. Honestamente, ahorras tiempo y todavía tiene un sabor tan tan bueno, confía en mí chica en ésto!
Me encanta que se puede hacer este bizcocho en literalmente minutos y si usted tiene sobra puedes disfrutar el día siguiente o el día siguiente de la próxima (hago sentido? Jaja!). Asegúrate de que lo tengas en la nevera, ya que contiene leche y si lo dejas fuera toda la noche, se puede ir mal.
