How to cook deliciously - Tres Leches Cake from Reynolds Wrap®

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and place rack in the center of the oven. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil and set aside.

2. Stage

Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.

3. Stage

Whip together the egg whites in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Add the cream of tartar and whip until soft peaks form, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the egg whites to a separate bowl.

4. Stage

Beat the egg yolks in the mixing bowl using a paddle attachment until thick and pale in color. Add the granulated sugar and beat on high for about 5 minutes, until very thick and ribbons fall when you lift the paddle attachment. Stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract and milk until smooth. Add the flour mixture and stir until just combined.

5. Stage

Fold in the egg whites, in three increments, making sure to thoroughly incorporate the whites but try not to over-mix.

6. Stage

Pour batter into prepared baking pan and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

7. Stage

Whisk together the three milks in a medium bowl. Whisk in the rum and vanilla extract. Using a wooden skewer, poke holes all throughout the cooled cake. This will allow for the milk mixture to seep in. Pour the milk evenly over the cake. Cover with Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil and allow to chill in the fridge for about 3 hours or overnight.

8. Stage

Whip together the heavy cream along with the powdered sugar, salt and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the chilled cake. Decorate with sprinkles and cherries. Slice generously and enjoy!
