must try!
This cake was amazing! i made it for my boyfriend and he has always wanted to try it and he loved it! it is so moist that you don't need anything to drink with it! it is very cheap to make and makes a lot of servings! I will make this cake again! If you don't like milk or super moist cakes then i would not recommend it, but if you do then this is a must make cake!!

a different type of cake for me
i made this last night for my family. i had never heard of a tres leches cake before. we are trying to eat healthier.it was a heavy cake to pick up. very moist and absorbed all the liquid while in fridge. falls apart easily. will try a slice with my fresh frozen strawberries today. will keep in my recipe file.

Tres Leches Cake
Yesterday I made this cake for our office manager for her birthday ~ we run a Healthy Heart Program for diabetic indians & we LOVE your healthified recipes. This cake was a HUGE hit yesterday ~ I have to admit I was afraid of pouring all that milk on top, but it turned out great ~ not soggy at all, just moist moist moist & delicious ~

Wonderful!
I absolutely loved this recipe! I am from South Texas and Tres Leches is a very popular dessert around here. I took it to a party and everyone loved it! I don’t think anyone noticed that it was healthified! Thank you so much for helping me live a healthier lifestyle while still eating traditional comfort food!

tres leche cake
Excellent! Company loved it! I used a regular yellow cake mix and added 1-3 oz. package of sugar-free, instant vanilla puddling. Using a 4-cup measuring bowl makes it easier to pour the three milks.

tres leches cake
Well, this cake is very moist . ( that is the intention of the cake like dipping the cake in milk!)` but if you are not a fan of extremely moist cake I suggest you put the cake on a grid and let the cake drip the milk out for a couple of hours then stick it in the fridge its really good when cold.

Made some other changes but still great!
I could not find fat free condensed milk anywhere! And so I bought an extra can of the evaporated skim milk, boiled it down and then added a 1/8 cup of sugar.
Also - to cut fat further I used apple sauce instead of oil.
We loved it even though it was a drop less moist then the real thing but still was great!

Not Happy
I made this cake and followed the recipe. The cake was soggy I like my cakes moist, but that was ridiculous.

good and simple
I made this cake for a family barbeque and had to give the recipe to two sisters-in-law! Everyone really liked it. I even used a reduced sugar cake mix to make it just that more healthified. I will certainly make this again -- it was also quick and easy to put toghether.

cake mix w/Splenda for diabetics
I just made this for a work pitch-in and it went over very well. Because there are several diabetics in my office, I used the Pillsbury cake mix w/Splenda and sugar free Cool Whip, so that they could indulge. I was surprised by how rich it was since I didn't know what to expect. I have had to share the recipe with 2 people already and expect more requests before the day is over. This is definitely great for a big group & not something to make for a small group due to how rich it is.

OMG!!
This cake is delicious. I've tried other recipes for Tres Leches Cake before. They've been full calories and often didn't turn out right. This recipe was very easy to make and used ingredients that I keep in my house. Full of flavor!!! You'd never know that this was the "healthified" version. I'd highly recommend it!

Easy pleaser
I made this for everyone at work and it was a huge hit. Just the right coolness and moist texture. I recommend baking the cake according to sight (golden brown, plump). I also let the cake soak over night before applying the cool whip topping. It then sat in the fridge at work all morning. Just follow the recipe, don't rush to finish. This is remarkably easy (to the scratch recipe) and does have a sweet finish - which shouldn't be a surprise considering the milk used.

disappointed
I like trying new recipes and this one looked really good, but I was sadly disappointed with it. I forgot I am not a sweetened condensed milk fan, and that was the taste that hit me first and stayed with through to the aftertaste. Too bad, because it seemed so light and freshing, especially after a filling dinner. Any suggestions for a substitute for sweetened condensed milk, please let me know. Thanks. Jane

Oil switch out
When I make cakes I found that a low fat and healthy switch on the oil. Subsitute sugar free applesauce in equal amounts for the oil called for in the recipe. There is no taste difference, so the family still gets a treat, but it is a bit healthier.

Cholestoral
Just a suggestion for the whole eggs in the recipe. I will often use regular egg beaters in my recipes when it calls for eggs. They lower the calories and the cholestoral.

I made this and my roommates LOVED it. I thought it was delicious as well, but the more fresh it is, the better. After a couple days it starts to taste like soggy strawberry shortcake. It was really good though, I was afraid it would taste strange as a healthy recipe but it was definitely creamy and rich, I can't imagine what the fattening cake would taste like, ick.
