Ingredients:

  • 1 box (432g) white or yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup (240ml) water
  • 1/2 cup (115g) vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 can (14 oz / 397g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 can (12 oz / 355ml) evaporated milk
  • 2 tsp (10ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (480ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs. Beat until the batter is smooth.
  3. Pour batter into the pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. While the cake is still hot from the oven, use a wooden skewer or straw to poke deep holes every 1 inch across the entire surface.
  5. Whisk together sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until homogenous.
  6. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the warm cake, ensuring every hole is filled.
  7. Let the cake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  8. Whip cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  9. Spread the whipped cream evenly over the chilled cake using a spatula.
