Tres Leches Boston Cream Cake
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the whole milk, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
-
Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Pierce the cake all over with a fork.
-
Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak in. Let the cake rest for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
-
In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and whisk in the powdered sugar, cornstarch, and cocoa powder until smooth.
-
Return the saucepan to low heat and add the butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Stir until melted and smooth.
-
Remove the cake from the refrigerator and pour the chocolate ganache over the top, spreading it evenly.
-
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
-
Slice and enjoy!
