CHOCOLATE TRES LECHES CAKE
A chocolate version of a Mexican classic. This moist and delicious cake tastes like you spent all day in the kitchen but a boxed mix makes it so easy! For variety, you can add one tablespoon coffee-flavored liquor (such as Kahlua®) to your milk mixture or a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to your cake batter.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch pan with butter and flour.
- Beat cake mix, chocolate milk, canola oil, eggs, and espresso powder together in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer on a low speed until dry ingredients are moistened. Increase speed to medium and continue beating another 2 minutes; pour into prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Remove cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan until it is no longer hot to the touch. While the cake is still warm, poke lots of holes all over the cake with a small skewer or a fork.
- Whisk sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, evaporated milk, and 3 tablespoons cocoa powder together in a bowl until cocoa is mostly incorporated into the liquid; slowly pour the milk mixture evenly over the cake. Allow the cake to cool completely as the liquid soaks into it.
- Sift confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder together in a bowl.
- Beat heavy whipping cream in a stand mixer on medium speed for about 1 minute. While continuing to mix, add sugar-and-cocoa mixture to the cream in 2 batches, allowing the first to incorporate before adding the second. Increase mixer speed to medium-high; beat until soft peaks form and the cream is thickened and spreadable. Spread chocolate whipped cream on the cake to serve.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9- by 13-inch cake pan.
- Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl.
- Separate the eggs. Beat the egg yolks with 3/4 cup of the sugar on high speed until the yolks are pale yellow. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Pour the egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir very gently until combined.
- Beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. With the mixer on, pour in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until the egg whites are stiff but not dry. Fold the egg white mixture into the batter very gently until just combined. Spoon into the prepared pan and spread to even out the surface.
- Bake until the cake is done, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan, and then turn out (upside down) onto a rimmed platter.
- For the tres leches: Combine the heavy cream, evaporated milk and condensed milk in a small pitcher. Pierce the surface of the cake with a fork several times. Drizzle the milk mixture over the top and allow the cake to sit and absorb the milk mixture. Don't worry about totally soaking the cake! That's what you want.
- For the icing: Whip the cream with the sugar. Spread it evenly over the top and sides of the soaked cake and decorate with maraschino cherries.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve. Several hours is fine. The cooler the cake, the better!
TRES LECHES DE RON CON CHOCOLATE
This is another cake that I developed when I worked at Rosa Mexicano, and it quickly became one of the most popular desserts. We used to serve it with caramelized bananas, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce, all on the side. I have since tweaked the recipe a bit, by adding some chocolate to the tres leches mixture itself, instead of having a separate sauce, and by layering the cake with whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- TO MAKE THE CAKE, bring the water to a boil and stir in the instant coffee, mixing until it dissolves. Put the cocoa in a heatproof bowl and pour the hot coffee into it, whisking until there are no lumps; set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and half of the sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, oil, and vanilla. Add the cooled cocoa mixture and gently stir with a whisk until smooth. Pour the egg mixture into the large bowl with the flour mixture, whisking until the batter is smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt and the cream of tartar until it starts to thicken. Add the remaining half of the sugar gradually and continue beating until stiff and glossy peaks form.
- Stir about one-third of the egg whites into the batter to lighten the mixture, then add the remaining egg whites in two parts, folding gently but making sure everything is well incorporated. Divide the batter into 2 ungreased 9-inch pans and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. As soon as they come out of the oven, unmold the cakes onto a wire rack, and let them sit until cool. Remove the pans and prepare the tres leches mixture.
- TO MAKE THE TRES LECHES, bring the half-and-half to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Put the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl and pour the hot half-and-half over. Allow to sit for a minute, then stir with a whisk until smooth. Whisk in the evaporated milk, salt, condensed milk, and rum, blending well. Put the cakes in a deep dish or back into their baking pans and pour the warm mixture over them. Be sure to pour any liquid that dripped down the sides on top of the cakes as well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours, or freeze for 30 to 40 minutes, so they are easier to handle.
- TO MAKE THE FILLING, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer or by hand until slightly thickened. Add the confectioner's sugar and vanilla and continue beating until thickened and smooth. Refrigerate until the cakes have cooled.
- To assemble the cake, put one of the cakes on a piece of cardboard or a serving platter and spread about one-third of the filling evenly on top. Top with the second cake and cover the top and sides with the remaining filling. Holding the chocolate with a paper towel in one hand, use a peeler to shave the chocolate onto the cake.
CHOCOLATE TRES LECHES CAKE
The traditional version is a white, vanilla flaovered cake that is infused with 3 types of milk--sweet milk, whole milk and cream. This chocolate version was published in Sabroso!, a southwest dining guide. The preparation time and cook time are estimates. When making a tres leches cake it is usually best to begin early in the morning or even the day before in order to have it ready in the evening. The process is lengthy and time consuming; but oh what wonderful results.

CHOCOLATE TRES LECHES CAKE
This recipe looks hard, but it's not. Promise. A very easy chocolate cake is transformed into a version of tres leches cake, the classic Latin American dessert, by drenching it with evaporated milk, condensed milk and heavy cream and topping it with a lightly sweetened whipped cream. Each component of this recipe - the cake, the tres leches and the whipped cream - are all adapted from "Simple Cake: All You Need to Keep Your Friends and Family in Cake" by Odette Williams, a choose-your-own-adventure cookbook that provides you with several cake and toppings recipes that you can combine as you wish. Ms. Williams's recipe doesn't call for it, but adding a teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the whipped cream is a lovely addition.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom only of a 9-by-13-inch cake pan (preferably metal), leaving a 1/4-inch border that remains ungreased. Do not butter the sides of the pan.
- Place a large sifter or a sieve in a large bowl. Add the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt and sift. Add the sugar and whisk to combine.
- In another large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla until combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until there are no lumps and the batter is smooth. Carefully pour in the boiling water and stir until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in the center of the oven until a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean and the cake bounces back when lightly pressed, about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the tres leches: In a large bowl, combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk (setting 3 tablespoons aside for the whipped cream), heavy cream and vanilla bean seeds or extract (if using) and whisk to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate if not using immediately.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Run a butter knife around the cake's edges. Cool completely.
- While the cake is still in the pan, use a skewer or a fork to poke small holes through the cake to the bottom, about an inch apart. Slowly spoon the tres leches over the top of the cake, giving it time to soak in. Once the liquid is absorbed, repeat until all the tres leches is used. (Toward the end, the tres leches will pool at the edges, but don't worry; it will be absorbed while in the fridge.) Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 5 to 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- When ready to serve, make the whipped cream: Add the reserved condensed milk along with the cream, vanilla and cinnamon (if using) to the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium high until the cream has doubled in volume, forms soft peaks and is light and fluffy. Spread the cake with the cream and sprinkle the chocolate shavings on top. Serve from the pan.
