Taqueria Los Hermanos' Pastel De Tres Leches Recipe

ingredients

1 package (18.25 ounce size) white cake mix
2 cups heavy cream, divided
3/4 cup half and half
3/4 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pineapple (1/2-inch pieces)
1 cup chopped strawberries (1/2-inch pieces)
1 cup halved seedless red grapes
3 kiwi, peeled and chopped (1/2-inch pieces)

directions

Prepare cake mix according to directions for sheet cake. Cool completely.

In a bowl, combine 3/4 cup cream, half-and-half and evaporated milk. Transfer to a spouted measuring cup or other cup with a pouring lip.

With a knife, lightly scrape the surface of the cake. (Loosening the crust allows the milk mixture to penetrate better. Do not remove the scraped crust.) Gradually pour the three-milk mixture over the cake, using a pastry brush to distribute it evenly, and letting it soak into the cake before adding more. Set aside.

With an electric mixer, whip the remaining 1 1/4 cups cream, sugar and vanilla. Spread over cake. Arrange the pineapple, strawberries, grapes and kiwi on top of whipped cream. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

Sweet! 15 ways to use sweetened condensed milk

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Onion Soup Mix Saves The Day

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
