Chocolate Tres Leches Cake Recipe

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Combine Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Combine and Add Water

Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed. Finally, stir in the boiling water until smooth.

Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Prepare the Milk Mixture

In a bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk. Mix until well blended.

Soak the Cake

Once the cake is baked and cooled, poke holes all over the surface using a fork. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak in.

Make the Chantilly

In a mixing bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon until soft peaks form.

Top the Cake

Spread the cinnamon chantilly over the soaked cake and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes.
