Tres Leches Cake

This is one of my husband's favorite desserts. I'm SO glad my friend gave me the recipe. She's amazing!

Tres Leches Cake

1 yellow cake mix
1 box cook and serve vanilla pudding
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 medium sized carton heavy whipping cream
pecan bits
caramel
Make cake mix using milk instead of water and add the box of cook and serve pudding. Bake in two 9” round cake pans. While they bake pour sweetened condensed milk into a deep, flat pan. Deep enough and big enough to dip cakes into. While the cakes cool whip the whipping cream until it starts to thicken, add a little sugar and vanilla to taste. When the cakes are cool dip them in the sweetened condensed milk. Let them soak up the milk but not until they’re soggy. Cover the first layer with the whipped cream, pecan bits and caramel. Don’t warm the caramel too much or it will ruin whipped cream. Set the second layer on the top and top it the same way as the first. Stick in the fridge. Serve cold. Keep refrigerated.
