Makes up to 6 Servings

1/3 Cup Whole Milk

12-ounce Can Evaporated Milk

14-ounce Can Sweetened Condensed Milk

1 Container Whipped Topping, garnish

Supplies:

Serving dish or individual serving bowls


Directions:

  1. Unwrap each Christmas Tree Cake and coarsely chop.
  2. Add the chopped cakes into your desired serving dishes. We recommend using jars or festive bowls.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the whole milk, evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk.
  4. Gently pour the milk mixture over the chopped trees, making sure to let the milk soak into the cakes. Do not fill the serving dishes full of milk. Just a light amount of milk will do.
  5. Top each serving dish with a layer of whipping topping. Place each tres leches cake into the fridge or freezer until set.
  6. Before serving, sprinkle cinnamon, green sprinkles and add raspberries.
  7. Enjoy!


Creation Tips:

For a larger serving, add coarsely chopped Christmas Tree Cakes to a serving dish. Add the milk as suggested and top the cake with the whipped topping. Let set in the fridge and garnish as normal before serving!
