Latin American Cuisine

Tres Leches Cake is a classic Latin American dessert known for its ultra-moist texture and sweet, milky flavor. A light sponge cake is baked until golden, then pierced with a fork and drenched in a mixture of three kinds of milk: evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream.
