Eggnog Tres Leches Cake image

This cake is creamy, sweet, and great eggnog flavor! I love a really good eggnog. Not all eggnog's are created the same so if you think you don't like eggnog, you just haven't found a good one yet. I created this cake for the holiday season when it's ok to indulge a little because this is definitely NOT low calorie!! This cake...

Time 8h35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

CAKE:
16 1/2 oz yellow or white cake mix
1 c plain yogurt
1 1/4 c dairy eggnog
1/4 c canola oil
TRES LECHES:
7 oz sweetened condensed milk
6 oz evaporated milk
2/3 c dairy eggnog
1 c heavy whipping cream
2 Tbsp sugar
fresh ground nutmeg, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13x9 baking dish with nonstick spray; set aside.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, yogurt, eggnog, and canola oil. With an electric mixer, blend on low for 30 seconds; shut off and scrape down sides. Blend on medium speed for 2 minutes. Batter should be smooth but slightly thicker than a regular cake batter. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 25- 28 minutes or until cake begins to pull away from sides of pan. Remove and allow to cool on wire rack.Once cool, poke holes in cake at 1 inch intervals using a wooden spoon or straw.
  • 3. In a bowl, stir together sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and eggnog. Pour entire bowl slowly into holes on cake. Cover pan and refrigerate overnight or a minimum of 4 hours. The longer it sits, the better it gets.
  • 4. Meanwhile, in a chilled bowl, beat whipping cream and sugar with chilled beaters until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use. To serve, place a dollop on portion of cake and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh ground nutmeg. Store cake in refrigerator. *** in my second batch of whipped cream, I added the nutmeg directly to the whipping cream and that was quite tasty too.

This cake was a little too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I had a little trouble getting the cake to rise properly, but it still tasted good. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think I would use less sugar next time.

This cake was easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a bundt pan and it came out perfectly. The glaze was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making this cake again.

I'm not a huge fan of eggnog, but this cake was surprisingly delicious! The tres leches milk mixture really helped to balance out the eggnog flavor. I would definitely recommend this cake to anyone who is looking for a unique and festive holiday dess
