Tres Leche (Nicaraguan Three Milks Dessert) This is the recipe given to me by a Nicaraguan lady in Miami who used to make the dessert for a well-known restaurant.
Cake: 1 c. sugar 1 c. flour 3 eggs, separated 1 t. vanilla 1 t. baking powder 1 t. nutmeg
Beat the egg whites til foamy. Add egg yolks, sugar, flour, milk, vanilla, nutmeg and baking powder. Butter a 9x13 pan and pour in batter. Bake at 350 for 45 mts. When done, take out of oven and pierce all over top with a fork.
Three Milks Punch: 1 can evaporated milk 1 can condensed milk 1 c. heavy cream 3 egg yolks (save whites to make meringue) 1 t. vanilla
Blend all ingrd. in blender. Pour slowly on top of cake, it will soak it all up.
Beat egg whites with a little bit of cream of tartar and 1/2 c. sugar added slowly to make a meringue. Spread meringue on top.
