Café Latte Tres Leches Cake Recipe
Ingredients
This Café Latte Tres Leches Cake recipe is a deliciously moist and creamy cake, infused with the flavors of espresso and dulce de leche. It's made with a simple sponge cake that is soaked in a mixture of three types of milk - evaporated, condensed, and heavy cream. To make the cake, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup espresso, brewed
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
- 1 cup cold heavy cream
- 1 cup dulce de leche
- Whipped cream and toasted almonds, for garnish
Instructions
To make the cake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. In a third bowl, beat the egg yolks until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and espresso, and beat until combined.
Fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, then gently fold in the flour mixture until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
In a large bowl, combine the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream. Whisk until combined and pour the mixture over the cooled cake. Spread the dulce de leche on top of the cake, then let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and toasted almonds.
