Mouthwatering Chocolate 3 Leches Cake

Normally when I make this dessert at home, I try to get it out of my house as fast as possible. Otherwise, I end up grabbing a spoon and gobbling it all by myself. It is so good, moist, sweet and decadent.

This time, I added the perfect twist: chocolate mixed with the milk.

When one thinks about Chocolate 3 Leches Cake, you imagine a chocolate sponge cake soaked in all those delicious kinds of milk. And though that’s delicious, the chocolate flavor of the cake usually gets lost. 

In order to really taste the chocolate in every bite, I flipped it around.

First, I baked my airy vanilla sponge. Then I whisked a delicious chocolate milk concoction comprised of bittersweet chocolate, evaporated milk, condensed milk, and crema Mexicana.

After the cake baked and cooled, I poked tons of holes all over it and poured my chocolate cold mixture. 

The result is this moist, flavorful, beauty:

It was hard taking all pictures of my Chocolate 3 Leches Cake. I kept eating it…

On the top, I piped some unsweetened whipped cream and shaved chocolate to counterbalance the sweetness of the sponge and chocolate milk.

This October we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by baking delicious treats from our home countries.

Next time you’re in the dairy section of your supermarket, look for the Real California Milk Seal.

    Thanks for providing nutrition facts. 113 percent saturated fat really puts motivation in portion control. When I first saw this dish I thought it had oatmeal on top of it. My eyes are getting too old. But this recipe is delicious. Just be careful y’all, It’s one of those splurge occasions. 🙂
