Here's what you'll need to make this dreamy, creamy cake:
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 5 large eggs, separated
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup carabao milk
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with 3/4 cup of the sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg yolk mixture and vanilla into the dry ingredients, then fold in the egg whites until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the tres leches by whisking together the carabao milk, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract.
- Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes all over the top with a fork or skewer.
- Slowly pour the tres leches mixture over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in as you go.
- Refrigerate the soaked cake for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, make the whipped topping by beating the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Spread or pipe the whipped topping over the chilled cake and prepare to set sail on a creamy, dreamy dessert adventure!
