A play on Tres Leches




Cake

1.5 ea. Egg whites

2 ea. Egg yolks

100 g (3/4 C) Sugar

63 g (1/3 C) total Evaporated milk + milk of choice

68 g (1/2 C) A.P Flour

7 g (1/2 tsp) Baking powder

1 g (or a pinch) Salt


Honey whipped cream

1 T of honey

1 pint of Heavy cream

1 tsp of vanilla paste or extract


Soak

1 can Evaporated milk

10 oz (1 1/4 C )Whole milk, soy or almond

8 oz (1 C) of Heavy cream

1 tsp of vanilla paste or extract

A pinch of kosher salt (or ⅛ tsp)


Poke holes throughout the top and sides of the cake to allow the soak to get through, pour the soak over the cake.


Finishing touches


Top the cake with the honey whipped cream,

I only did the top so the soak could get through the cake well enough.


Dust the cake with cinnamon sugar.


Drizzle a light amount of honey then a light amount Extra virgin olive oil on top of the cake or the preferred slices and a small sprinkle of sea salt.


Note:

The cake is best after sitting for a couple of hours or even 24 hours to soak in all of the milks and absorb it well.
