Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the cake is still warm, poke holes all over the top with a fork.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Pour evenly over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in completely.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.

Notes

Enjoy this Tres Leches Cake with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.
