Tres Leches Cake

Strawberry season!… I searched strawberry cake recepies, and came up with this such a beautiful cake on Natashaskitchen.com. This cake is so easy to make. It's moist and the frosting is so puffy-fluffy. Just loved it. My husband approved it and even asked for the additional piece. I shared a half of the cake with my parents. My mom said, "oh, tastes so good! Another good cake recepie that could be used for our parties."
I changed this recepie slightly by substituting Heavy Cream with Whipping Cream. I just wanted to decrease calories a little bit.

Ingredients for biskvit layers:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 and 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
5 whole eggs, separated
1 cup sugar, divided into 3/4 and 1/4 cups
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup 2% or whole milk

Syrop:
2/3 of a 12 oz can evaporated milk
2/3 of a 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup whipping cream

Frosting and Decor:
2 1/2 cups whipping cream
2 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 lb fresh strawberries

Process:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Prepare two 9" round cake pans. Make two parchment paper circles and put on the bottom of each pan. Spray sides of the pans with oil.
3. In the bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt.
4. On high spead, bit together egg yolks and sugar until yolks are pale yellow (approx 2 min). Stir in milk and vanilla extract.
5. Pour flour mixture over egg yolks mixture and mix on low spead until well combined.
6. In a separate bowl, mix egg whites for about one minute. Then add remaining sugar. Beat for another 1 minute. Make sure eggs are not dry.
7. Gently fold egg whites mixture with the other yolk/flour mixture. Separate equally between two pans. Bake for 30 minutes. Check with thectoothpick if it's ready. It's ready when the toothpick comes out clean.
8. Cool to the room temperature.
9. Mix all syrop ingredients.
10. Using the fork, poke the top of the cake layers. Pour half of the syrop and let it absorb.
11. When you prepare frosting, for best results, put mixing bowl and whisk attachment into freezer for 15 minutes. (That's very good tip that Natashaskitchen.com shared). Make sure that your whipping cream is very cold.
12. Beat whipping cream and sugar for about 5 minutes until it thick and spreadable. Do not overbeat it.
13. Frost the top of your first layer, arrange cut strawberries. Place the next layer.
14. Pour syrop over the top layer and let it absorb for another 10 minutes.
15. Finish the top and the sides of the cake with frosting.
16. Decorate with strawberries. I really like how it was decorated at Natashaskitchen.com. So elegant and gorgeous.

ENJOY!!!
