  • Sure, tres leches (which translates to "three milks") is an ultra moist cake, but what if we made everything from scratch AND introduced a fourth "milk"? Call it Cuatro Leches.
    Also, don't complain to me about how making the "milks" from scratch is not "easy" .. fine then go get a can. Ur just gonna hurt my feelings, it's fine.

    This will probably get lost in the comments but Josh, if your stand mixer can’t beat that amount of eggs, have you tried adjusting the stand height? There’s a screw on the stand along the column that holds the bowl that you can tighten or loosen to adjust the height of the bowl. You should be able to get your attachment very close to the bottom

      You can also buy a smaller bowl and whip combo from kitchenaid that fits on the bowl lift mixer. Call kitchenaid or search their website with your model number. My 6 qt mixer is too big for egg whipping too, but the 3.5 qt bowl works perfectly.

    My grandmother always made dulce de liche by taking cans of condensed milk, putting them in a heavy bottomed pot. Covering them with water and bring it to a rolling boil and let boil for four hours. Adding more water as needed. Let them completely cool and then open. 💥 bam. Dulce de Liche. Or, granny’s caramel as we call it. Lol
    Ps. Fun fact if you don’t let them cool before opening the cans will explode. It will be a mess and you will be finding caramel in every corner of your kitchen forever. It’s easier to just move instead of clean it. Also you will burn yourself. So be cool and let them cool.

    Made the cake:)
    Modifications: Used 3/4 cups of sugar instead of 1 cup in the cake -> it was still very sweet which is good
    Results: Cake's honestly a bit dryer than I'm used to..would recommend using a bit more evaporated milk and cream
    Optional Add-on: Plate the cake on a platter with dark coffee or expresso. I know it's not traditional, but it's such a great compliment for such a sweet cake. I had it in a Spanish restaurant like this once..never went back:))
    --
    Edit: First time I've added dulce de leche, and it just added to the sweetness. Definitely not bad, but def not necessary.

You seem a touch cocky, but not necessarily un-earned. It seems like the decision to pursue this channel was a good one and I, for one, am glad you're sharing your knowledge on this platform (especially the fermentation Friday stuff. I want to learn more and start fermenting).

    Cake looks great! I would up the three milk mixture probably about 1/2 cup or 3/4 a cup more just so the cake is really moist. When I make this I always flip the cake out of the pan and poke the bottom and sides with a wooden skewer so the holes go through the side just to be sure that every bite is completely moist and the milk fully absorbs. Also I have found that after poking if you put the cake upside down in the pan the outcome is always better. I like to top with homemade whipped cream and strawberries. We love to add a bit of shaved dark chocolate to the top as well. I’ve never tried cinnamon or Carmel on it before but I bet they pair nicely.:) great recipe 👍
