2-LAYER TRES LECHES CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl.
• In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together with an electric mixer until light, fluffy, and nearly doubled in size, 6-8 minutes.
• Using a spatula, gently fold in the flour mixture until just combined (some streaks of flour are okay).
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Combine the milk and vanilla extract in a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, then gently fold into the batter, mixing just to blend.
• Spray 2 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Divide the batter between the pans.
• Bake until the cakes are golden brown around the edges and spring back slightly when pressed in the center, about 20-25 minutes.
• While the cakes are baking, combine the evaporated milk, coconut milk and condensed milk in a liquid measuring cup or small bowl and whisk to blend.
• Once the cakes are done, immediately remove the cakes from the pans and invert them onto a wire rack or baking sheet. Cool for 2 minutes. Then, poke the cakes all over with a fork.
• Return the cakes to the pans. Drizzle the condensed milk mixture over the cakes, letting it soak in. Let sit for 15 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
• Carefully transfer one of the cakes to a cake stand.
• Spread a layer of the whipped cream over the cake. Place the other cake on top and spread with the remaining whipped cream.
• Decorate with berries, if desired.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
