Spongy cake soaked in three types of milk - a beloved Latin American favorite that's incredibly moist and delicious.
Instructions
Bake the sponge cake according to your preferred method and let it cool completely in the pan.
Combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and 200ml heavy cream in a bowl and whisk until well combined.
Using a fork, poke holes evenly across the entire surface of the cooled cake.
Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, allowing it to absorb gradually.
Cover and refrigerate the cake overnight or for at least 4 hours.
Whip the remaining 400ml cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Spread over the cake and dust with ground cinnamon before serving.
