This is the most addictive cake I've ever made. Hubby says it is also the BEST cake I've ever made.

Made this for a Cinco De Mayo party this weekend and it was a big hit for both adults and the kids. I had never even heard of it before until now. I took a lot of reviews into consideration and followed the recipe exactly as written. I made it the day before I needed it, to allow the filling to absorb into the cake. I didn't ice the cake until it was ready to eat. Everyone at the party felt the cake was moist enough. I did use the Duncan Heinz "moist" white cake mix, so perhaps that made the difference. I poked holes in the cake using the end of a wooden spoon and then slowly poured the filling over the cake filling each hole. Served it with strawberries (unsweetened) on the side. I already have requests to make this cake for next year. Try it! You won't be disappointed. Thank you for posting this recipe!!!!! It was a huge success with zero leftovers!

This cake is the best! My friends from Mexico told me that it was not "wet" enough. So since then I mix up an extra batch of the filling and pour half of it over the cake as well. What's left of the extra filling will keep for a while in the fridge. Gives me an excuse to make another yummy Tres Leches!

Very good! I followed the directions, except used coconut milk in place of the evaporated milk, and flavored the whipping cream with rum instead of vanilla. I decorated the cake with fresh fruit & toasted coconut & got raves on both presentation & taste. I will post a picture of the finished product as well. Thanks for sharing!
