Tres leches (Balkan Version)

This is a recipe I have been doing for nearly 10 years.
The exact origins of the tres leches cake can be traced back to 19th century Mexico, where soaked cakes and sponges were a tradition however for the Balkan Tres Leche one theory is that the popularity of Latin American soap operas in Albania led local chefs to reverse-engineer the dessert, which then spread to Turkey.

After the cake has been baked, let it rest for about 25 minutes.

Tres Leches Cake Tres Leches Cake
Another cake that has been on my baking bucket list for a while! There are many variations out there, but I preferred to start with a recipe that had a chiffon cake as a base.The Preppy Kitchen website has a great recipe and I used that as a starting point. However, I made some important technical changes, as well as some slight ingredient changes.This recipe will feed a crowd, and I found that it pairs really well with a strong cup of coffee!#Dessert #Birthday #Potluck #Sweets #Celebration #Mexican Chris Gan -
