      aya I’m sure you could but like he said you might want to leave the milks plain, as they are the star of the show. But in the end you can do whatever you want and I’m sure it wouldn’t negatively affect the end product. I would just let it cool before pouring over the cake.

    I think this is by far the best tasting vanilla cake I've ever baked. My husband is lactose so he really cannot eat the cake when the 3 Milks are added to it but he doesn't fee left out because I gave him all the pieces that were cut from the cake. He said this is a really great tasting vanilla cake! I just finished putting together the Tres Leches cake and it's in the fridge right now. Can't wait to try it tomorrow with the family! My husband asked if I can bake this vanilla cake recipe whenever I make cake! Thank you! I'm an avid fan 😊. Stay well!

    Made this for my dad's birthday - he usually only goes as far as saying "pretty good" for anything he eats, but he told me this Tres Leches was the best cake he'd ever eaten.
    I spent a long time figuring out the perfect birthday cake for him, since I was moving out of my house for the Summer right after. Thank you so much for all of your awesome cooking videos, I ended up looking through a lot of your cake videos for ideas since they were so diverse and detailed.
