🛑 I'm Stephanie and behind the camera, you have my sister Cloud. I started cooking at 4 years of age. What?! Yes (LOL) I pulled up a chair and my first choice was to fry an egg. I was hungry and that’s all I have to say about that experience. I would like to say I’m completely self-taught in the kitchen, but I have the lovely women in my family to thank. They taught me to honor my ancestors and to make my Mexican Cuisine comfortable for my home. I thank our creator for my curiosity and my never-ending search for the next gastronomic satiation. Cooking is a huge part of my daily life as I prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks for my two American Korean/Mexican boys. I know who does that these days?

BAKING TIP: If you don't have cake flour take a level cup of all purpose flour, remove 2 tablespoons of that flour from the cup and then add two tablespoons of cornstarch to replace the flour you took out. Sift it 3-5 times to make it fluffy and airy! ( PLS LIKE SO PEOPLE KNOW)

[@naomiiyt2435]

I second the replacement too. Cake flour is expensive and over rated when all purpose, unbleached white flour can be turned into cake flour by reducing and adding cornstarch. Thanks!

[@maritza6712]

I made this for my boyfriends birthday the other day. Mind you, I've never made a cake before. This was my first time. I was nervous and I had been watching this for the past week just to get familiar with it. Honestly my first attempt was pretty bad, my cake shrunk. It was probably because the temperature on the oven was too high, and the batter was too runny, and I didn't get the air bubbles out... My best advice? To anyone having a hard time, listen when she says if its too runny to add more flour and everything else lol. I did use the Swans Down cake flour. But I am a beginner when it comes to baking. My second attempt was much better. The cake came out great. I paid a little more attention and took more time with it. So patience is important. Just don't rush, follow the steps carefully. My blending of the eggwhites took more than 6 minutes, I'll say it took me about 10 minutes or so. But she does a great job of clarifying everything. Everyone enjoyed the final product. There was no left overs :( But I was so happy that everyone loved it. I was almost worried I would have to go buy a cake from the store. Annnnd I actually put more strawberries in mine because I looooove strawberries. :) This is a fantastic recipe. I will make it a few more times throughout this year just to get more confident with it. Thank you so much for sharing this with us @Views on the road P.S. I Used Cool whip! Sorry! :p Just kidding! I took the extra step. Thank you for teaching me how to make whipped cream. :) Subscribed!!!

I tried it today. And yes, it shrunk ☹. I tried a different batch and the same thing happened. I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong.

[@lisahinton9682]

@@irenegonzalez1144 baking is a science. The ratio of ingredients has to be correct. The temperature has to be accurate (so preheat that oven if baking!) Add the dry ingredients little by little to the wet, not the other way around. Make sure to use a non-plastic bowl for beating the egg whites, and make darned sure not one bit of yolk gets in the whites. I could go on and on. Don't give up. Read a few baking hints on Google. Don't give up! Homemade baked goods are fantastic - no weird chemical taste, no cheapy ingredients, and your friends and family will be so appreciative!

[@aqs6024]

I've been making this for the last 3 years, I’ve made it around 20 times so far, the first time I made it, it turned out prefect although From the 20 times I’ve made it not all of them came out perfect. Some of them came out dense and none of the milk mixture would absorb, I got frustrated because I knew there wasn’t anything wrong with the recipe because the first 8-10 times I made it it came out perfect. Now I made it again last night after about 8 months and it came out perfect once again. From what I detected my mistake was with folding the egg whites into the batter you have to be very careful during the process, if you over mix it and too much of the air comes out of the egg whites then it will come out dense, and also make sure you mix it evenly, there shouldn’t be any streaks of batter without the egg whites or else that spot in the cake will be de dense and won’t absorb the milk. So if you try this recipe once and it doesn’t work out then try it again!! Because this is a great recipe (hence why I’ve made it 20 time 😂)

I love this recipe. I think I’ve made it at least ten times. I always learn more as I make it. It use to take me so long to make the peeks with the egg whites. I realized what I was doing wrong. I was getting just a little bit yolk in the whites and that wouldn’t let me make the peeks I needed. Just making that change and being careful when separating them. I MADE THE PEEKS IN 5 MINUTES!!!!!! I just wanted to share this in case this is happening to someone. I remember taking 20 + minutes making the peeks lol cake still tasted good. But this time with the right peeks it was wayyyyyyy better.

My boyfriend loves tres leches cake so I went on youtube and stumbled across your recipe and I was so excited to try it. We finally got a new oven since our other one wasn't working and I was like well what better time than now. I bought all my ingredients and my first time making it (not gonna lie was terrible) the batter was too runny and I think it might've been because the eggs that I used were huge and I added more flour to even it out but it didn't work. I was pretty bummed out because my boyfriend was coming over soon so ended up throwing it away and starting over. My second time was so much better. The cake still shrunk but not nearly as bad. It is SO important to listen to everything that she has to say and especially when it comes to having patience. My cake had trouble absorbing all the liquid but everyone loved it. I wish I had a picture to show you guys but it was gone quickly. For anyone wanting to make it don't feel discouraged and take your time! Lastly, I just wanna give a huge thanks to Stephanie for all the hard work she puts in. Sometimes making Mexican dishes can be very tedious. I'm looking forward to trying your new tres leches recipe because my family LOVES a fluffy tres leches and also many of the other recipes you have on your channel. Thank you for encouraging me to get back in the kitchen and for being so lovely!

Great recipe😋 I have a suggestion...If you pour the milk mixture onto the cake when it is still warm, wait at least 7-10 minutes after taking out of oven. The cake will absorb all the milk and you will not have to poke holes. No worries that a part of the cake has more milk than others. I have been doing it this way for years. It works great.

I have had tres leches cake and this looks like it's totally doable...but I just wanted you to know how impressed I am with the way you handled your son. He was polite when he came in (a testament to the way you talk to him), but when you reminded him you were recording, he quieted right away until you invited him to come and say hi to us. You weren't short or snappish or critical in any way and his smiles and willingness to cooperate are obviously the product of this being the main way you deal with him. Good parenting is a product of good parenting, so your mother deserves credit as well. Enjoy every moment with that little boy...you and he both deserve it.

[@joannadelarosa5956]

So I made this cake yesterday and followed the recipe to the T, it did come out exactly like the one in the video. The cake bread is really good, bouncy and moist. But in my opinion the only thing missing from this recipe is more syrup. We love our 3 leches cake to be extra syrupy, now don't get me wrong the edges of this cake are the best slices because they are drenched in sauce it's just the middle that is dry. So when making this cake if u like the cake to be all @ syrupy then double the syrup recipe. Other than that it is really good and I will be making again with more syrup

[@jessicadurkin2245]

I hate when it's dry I swear I like mine drenched! When I buy it by the slice I make sure the container is at least 50 to 75% full of milk that's what makes this cake!

I love this video! I’m happy to see you can make Tres Leches in one pan! I always “follow the directions” from my old recipe and flip the cake out onto a jelly role pan. I can’t wait to try the convenience of one smaller pan! Love watching you and Claud!!! ❤️

In April 2018 I was fortunate to have finally added a son into my family. My daughter married an amazing man and they are wonderful together! My side of the family is all Croatian, his side is all Puerto Rican. We found that our greatest commonalities are love of music, food, lots of family gatherings and lots of coordinated ducking since we all talk with our hands flying. Luis, my son in law, loves Tres Leches Cake. A month ago I decided to do a search for the recipe and the first one I saw was yours! It was so easy to follow and yes I made every ounce of it from scratch! I didn't tell him I had made it but after dinner was done, I brought it out. His eyes were HUGE! He took one bite, got up from the table and gave me the biggest hug ever! Mind you, I'm 5 foot nothing and he is 6 foot 4. Talk about a bear hug LOL! I made sure to make plenty so he and my daughter could take a large amount back to their home for later. Thank you so much for this recipe and I plan on making more from your channel.

[@Viewsontheroad]

Hi Jelena! Thank you for reporting back to us🤗 congratulations on the son in love! He is so fortunate to have a loving MIL and what you did I am sure he will remember❤️

Tres leches cak is hands down THE best cake ever! Thank you for showing us the best way to make it!!!! Love your channel. You always make me so hungry😂

[@angelamarchbanks2621]

Love your videos. You explain things like my aunts did growing up. I love it! Mixing tip - Always beat your egg whites first and if using a hand mixer try a glass bowl as the metal with interact with the whites. It will take less time. Ignore that if you use a stand mixer because they are stronger in beating. Egg whites also get beat first so everything stays clean any egg yolk or oil will cause them to take a long time and/or not stiffen at all. Also, you can go directly to beat the yolks and won't have to wash the beaters in-between.

[@jeannettemahvi7004]

I made this for our big Christmas dinner dessert!!! You are a genius! I did this exactly like you suggested, I didn’t take any short cuts and listened 3 times before I even started and even played it while I made it. This is the most “worth it” cake ever! It tastes amazing, the cake is so perfect for holding all the syrup without falling apart but still the most luscious and delicious treat you will ever want to serve your loved ones. I added both the cinnamon and 🍓’s took it over the top. My family thanks you too!

[@Viewsontheroad]

I'm overjoyed--yay!!! I love that you did your homework and listened before making the recipe! I find this is the easiest way to retain information and make sure the steps are followed. Give your family my best! Happy New Year🤗

[@OOceaneyess]

Looks yummy! I’ve been making TL cakes for years at my bakery/ coffee house. A fav of my customers! I instead use 2 spring form pans. That way you will have slightly mashed and lightly sweetened fresh strawberries ( or whatever fruit you use) in the center of each slice as well as on top. I also Rotate back and forth between evaporated milk and canned coconut milk. Best to cover with foil after you’ve forked and poured your 3 milks and made sure they are evenly absorbed throughout the cake for at least a full day and night. Also I use powdered sugar with heavy whipping cream instead of granulated sugar. Great flavor profile as it blends with the heavy whipping cream better. Just like most other bakeries make whipped cream and coffee houses like mine are use in their whipped cream dispensers to top coffee drinks. DELICIOUS! This cake looks delish too!

I had a few dry spots in the cake and my whipped cream wasn’t as thick as I wanted but this was only my first try but I always loved this cake🍰🍰🥄 my daughters cousin would always make this and she was the one who made it for my shower and since she’s passed I haven’t had it since😢 but it feels like she was in the kitchen with me as I made this cake 🥰😇I love love love it thank you so much 🥰☺️❤️

Tre leches is the best. If you are in a pinch, I found that a pound cake box mix works perfect for tres leches. Also, for my syrup mixture along with the extra vanilla I add about a quarter cup of vanilla rum. It is a huge hit. Great job girl. Keep doing what you are doing.

[@lynnb1674]

@@samilesamil9159 but not that expensive. Should be half that or no more than $40.

[@samilesamil9159]

@@lynnb1674 it depends on the size and where you purchase it. I allways get a quarter sheet cake for $40, 1/2 sheet I think is $60 and full sheet is $120. Some places charge extra for filling.

The only place that even knew what I was asking when I called quoted me the same (and I’m in a pretty strong Latino area of the city, surprised by the lack of bakeries). I was told those were “white girl prices”. Had my Spanish speaking friend call back and it was $20. 😂

[@franciegarneau1651]

This recipe sounds wonderful! I must try. One thing I really appreciated about your video, is that your instructions are VERY detailed! This is so needed for the person that has never whipped eggs and sugar together, whipped egg whites into peaks or folded anything into a batter. Showing this to my granddaughter that needs to learn these tricks. Thank You. We may be making this for a Christmas dessert. Pies get boring after Thanksgiving!
