TARTA TRES LECHES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.;
- Grandma's Gold Cake Preparation:
- Beat butter, add sugar, add eggs, vanilla. Beat for 2 minutes. Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture and alternate with milk. Grease and flour cake pan. Line with parchment paper. Pour batter into the pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.;
- Crust Preparation:
- Process the shortbread in a food processor, pulsing until ground. Add sugar, pulse more, add butter and pulse until it looks like wet sand and holds somewhat together. Press into a glass pie pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. Set on stove to cool. Brush lightly with beaten egg whites.;
- Creme Preparation:
- In a double boiler, place 1 cup of whole milk, 1/4 cup of half-and-half, 2/3 cups sugar and cinnamon sticks. Let heat until boiling and turn down to medium-high heat. Separate 6 eggs saving the whites in a separate bowl. Whisk the yolks, cornstarch and the 1/4 cup additional whole milk until well blended. Using a ladle, scoop out some of the hot milk mixture and temper the eggs whisking it carefully and adding it to the hot milk mixture. Take care to continuously stir with a whisk or it will lump up. When thickened pull off of heat source and add vanilla and butter. Cover and put in freezer to cool for 10 minutes. (I use a cake pan liner);
- Meringue Preparation:
- In a saucepan, boil the corn syrup, salt and sugar. Meanwhile, whisk egg whites in a stand mixer until firm peaks form. Take melted sugars off the stove and in a steady stream, add to the whisking egg whites. Keep whisking until glossy. Cover with a towel.;
- Shortbread Preparation:
- Cream butter, add sugars, blend and add vanilla. Add flours and cornstarch carefully by hand. Set aside and chill. Roll out between 2pieces of parchment, set in a cake pan to bake, mark designs with a fork. Bake in a preheated 325 degree F oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a rack.;
- Three Milks:
- Combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, heavy cream and rum.;
- Assembly:
- Spread creme on the pie crust. Add layer of vanilla cake. Poke holes with a fork and brush or spray cake layer with Three Milks mixture saving any that will not absorb into the cake layer. Spread meringue over the top, being sure to seal down to the edge of the crust. Garnish with maraschino cherries, 5 mint leaves and cake crumbs. Plate pie with a cinnamon stick rolled in cinnamon on the side and porcelain bull filled with more milk. Drizzle with Cajeta.;

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly oil and line the base and sides of a 20cm square cake tin.
- Put the egg whites in a large bowl with a pinch of salt. Beat with an electric hand whisk until foamy, about 3 mins. Keep mixing while you add 150g of the sugar, a spoonful at a time, until thick and glossy.
- In another bowl, mix the egg yolks, remaining sugar and vanilla (no need to clean the beaters first) for 2 mins, or until pale and foamy. Add the flour, baking powder and milk to the egg yolks, and use a spatula to fold everything together.
- Add a large spoonful of egg white to the cake mix, beat together to loosen the mixture, then gently fold through the remaining egg whites with a large metal spoon (being careful not to over-stir so you don't knock out too much air), until you have a smooth batter.
- Pour into the tin, smooth the top and bake for 40-45 mins until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Mix together the evaporated milk, condensed milk and 3 tbsp of the cream.
- Leave the cake to cool for 10 mins in the tin, then ease a knife around the sides. Poke holes over the surface with a skewer, then pour over half the milk mixture. After 5 mins or so, most of it should have soaked into the cake. Leave for another 5 mins, then transfer to a plate and pour over some of the remaining milk until it starts to leak a little. (Any leftover milk that won't soak into the cake can be served on the side.) Leave to cool.
- Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar together until holding soft peaks. Spread the cream over the cake and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. Can be made and chilled a day ahead. Serve in squares with any remaining soaking milk.
