3 MILK CAKE OR TRES LECHES
With all the liquid in this cake you would think it cannot work. But it does. It is a traditional Spanish recipe and the most delicious cake you've ever tasted. Obviously the moistest.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
- Beat 6 egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy; set yolks aside. Gradually beat in sugar until mixture holds soft peaks. Beat in flour gradually, then beat in milk, reserved egg yolks, melted butter, 4 teaspoons vanilla extract, and baking powder, beating in each ingredient thoroughly before adding the next. Pour batter into prepared baking pan.
- Bake in preheated oven until cake is browned and crusty on top, no more than 30 minutes. Let cake cool in pan for about 10 minutes before gently removing cake to finish cooling.
- Whisk sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and half-and-half in a bowl. Pour half the 3-milk mixture into a pan deeper and longer than the cake. Lay the cake into the milk mixture. Use a fork to score deep lines into the top of the cake and pour remaining 3-milk mixture over cake, allowing the mixture to soak in.
- Beat cream cheese with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a bowl with electric mixer until soft and fluffy; gradually beat in cream until frosting is thick and spreadable. Spread over the cake.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly oil and line the base and sides of a 20cm square cake tin.
- Put the egg whites in a large bowl with a pinch of salt. Beat with an electric hand whisk until foamy, about 3 mins. Keep mixing while you add 150g of the sugar, a spoonful at a time, until thick and glossy.
- In another bowl, mix the egg yolks, remaining sugar and vanilla (no need to clean the beaters first) for 2 mins, or until pale and foamy. Add the flour, baking powder and milk to the egg yolks, and use a spatula to fold everything together.
- Add a large spoonful of egg white to the cake mix, beat together to loosen the mixture, then gently fold through the remaining egg whites with a large metal spoon (being careful not to over-stir so you don't knock out too much air), until you have a smooth batter.
- Pour into the tin, smooth the top and bake for 40-45 mins until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Mix together the evaporated milk, condensed milk and 3 tbsp of the cream.
- Leave the cake to cool for 10 mins in the tin, then ease a knife around the sides. Poke holes over the surface with a skewer, then pour over half the milk mixture. After 5 mins or so, most of it should have soaked into the cake. Leave for another 5 mins, then transfer to a plate and pour over some of the remaining milk until it starts to leak a little. (Any leftover milk that won't soak into the cake can be served on the side.) Leave to cool.
- Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar together until holding soft peaks. Spread the cream over the cake and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. Can be made and chilled a day ahead. Serve in squares with any remaining soaking milk.

VEGAN TRES LECHES CAKE ( THREE MILKS CAKE)
I first tasted a Three Milk Cake when I purchased a piece from my local Co-operative. It was delicious, but because it had so much dairy in it I don't eat it now. However, I did come across a vegan recipe from http://www.vegcooking.com/recipeshow.asp?RequestID=987 and I may just give this one a try. If you can't find the non-dairy whipping cream you can make your own by using coconut whipping cream which is recipe #219030 or soy whipped topping which is recipe #236911 You can also top this cake with Vegan Whipped Cream, fruit and/or berries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350'F.
- Grease and flour an 8 inch cake pan. Line the pan with parchment.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and baking soda.
- In a separate smaller bowl whisk salt, margarine, sugar, water, vanilla and vinegar until blended.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, whisking till smooth. Pour the batter into the cake pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool the cake in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Remove the cake and allow it to cool. Cut the cooled cake in half horizontally so that it forms two thin layers and put the bottom half of the cake back into the cake pan.
- In a small bowl, mix the cream of coconut and coconut milk together until they form the consistency of condensed milk. Add more of each if necessary.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut mixture, soy milk, and non dairy whipping cream until smooth.
- Add the lime juice if desired. Stirring occasionally, bring the milk mixture to a boil.
- (The milk mixture has to reach a full boil prior to pouring it over the cake; otherwise it won't soak into the cake layer).
- Using a small cup or pitcher, pour the hot milk mixture over the bottom half layer of the cake, press with a spatula until all the milk has been absorbed.
- Add a little more milk. Replace the top layer of the cake and pour more milk mixture over the top layer of the cake, press with a spatuala until all the milk is absorbed.
- Let the milk mixture soak into the cake for at least 30 minutes. After the cake has cooked, refrigerate until ready to serve.
- At this point you can add a non-vegan whipped topping and berries if you wish.
- Bon Appetit!
