Ingredients
Cake
- Strawberry Box Cake Mix (you can also make your own cake from scratch if you prefer)
- Eggs (use amount in box directions)
- Oil (use amount in box directions)
- Milk (swap amount of water in box directions for equal amount of milk)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Tres Leches Mix
- 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (14 oz can)
- ½ cup Evaporated Milk
- ½ cup Hiland Strawberry Milk
Topping
- 2 cups Hiland Dairy Heavy Cream
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh strawberries, sliced
Directions
- Mix the cake according to box direction. Use the same amount of eggs and oil on the box but swap the water out for an equal amount of milk. Mix together and then pour into a 9×13 cake pan lined with parchment or sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake according to box directions.
- While the cake is cooling, mix the three milks together. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk, ½ cup evaporated milk and ½ cup Hiland Dairy Strawberry Milk. Whisk until combined and set aside.
- Once the cake is almost fully cooled, take a fork, skewer or chopstick and poke holes generously into the cake.
- Slowly pour the strawberry milk mixture over the entire cake. Let the mixture soak in a bit then cover and refrigerate. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight.
- Before serving, make the whipped cream. In a medium bowl, add the 2 cups of Hiland Heavy Cream, ⅓ cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer to mix for several minutes until the mix is thick and stiff peaks are formed.
- Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake evenly and then decorate with fresh sliced strawberries. Cut and serve!
- Store covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
