How To Make A Pioneer Woman Tres Leches Cake?

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Divide the eggs into two more mixing bowls.
Add a cup of egg yolk and sugar to the bowl and mix at high speed until the egg yolk turns pale yellow. Add a cup of milk and vanilla and stir. Pour the egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir gently until mixed (do not overmix).

Use an electric beater to beat the egg whites at high speed. Once you start tapping on the hard tip, gradually mix the remaining ¼ cup of sugar. Carefully place the beaten egg whites in the batter and rub the bottom and sides of the bowl until everything is combined.

Pour the dough into the prepared bread and smooth it. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the toothpicks are clean in the center of the cake. Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool completely.
Place condensed milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk in a small bowl. When the cake has cooled, use a fork to make a hole in the top of the cake.

Slowly pour the milk mixture onto the cake, pouring it near and around the edges. Allow the cake to cool for at least an hour or overnight to allow it to absorb the milk.
In the meantime, whisk cream, sugar, and vanilla until hard. Smooth the top of the cake.
