Directions

    Prepare your cake batter according to box instructions. *(Optional: replace water with milk and oil with melted butter.) * 

    Pour batter into mini cake pans, using slightly less than ⅓ cup per pan. 

    Bake at 350°F for 12–14 min or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. 

    Allow cakes to cool on counter for 25 minutes. 

    Whipped Cream: 

    In a large mixing bowl, beat heavy cream, sugar and a splash of Vainilla Molina until medium peaks form. 

    Transfer whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. 

    Refrigerate until ready to use. 

    Make Tres Leches Mixture: 

    In a medium bowl, whisk together evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, half & half and a splash of Vainilla Molina. 

    Pour about ⅓ cup of the mixture over each mini cake, allowing it to soak in. 

    Assemble the Cakes: 

    Pipe whipped cream on top of each soaked cake. 

    Cover with a lid and refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to meld. 

    Garnish with sliced strawberries, mango or kiwi just before serving to keep them fresh and vibrant. 

    Serve and enjoy!
