Angel Cake (Pastel de Angel)
Ana Gloria Cano Montes de Farias (aka Mama')
3 loafs of pound cake (Entemann's small size)
6 eggs
2 cans condensed milk
1/4 lb. butter
1 can evaporated milk
nuts and raisins
Slice pound cake approx. 1/4 inch-1/2 inch thick. Be as consistent as possible with your slicing.
Place one layer of sliced pound cake into pan. Butter in chunks goes on top.
In blender, milk with eggs
Pour onto bread and cover with raisins and pecans
Layer again, etc.
Put in over for 1/2 hour or until golden brown and knife comes out clean.
Can serve warm or cooled
*I got this recipe from my Mother-in-Law my first Christmas at the In-Laws. It's an old family recipe that's been passed down orally for a while. Mama' was kind enough to dictate it to me so I could put it down, since their family doesn't use recipes- they just cook from memory.

Tres Leches Cake
1 pkg. yellow, white, strawberry, or butter cake mix (I've even had tres leches chocolate cake before) I like butter cake best, because it holds its own against the tres-leches topping.
Prepared according to instructions. Set aside to cool
1 c. milk
3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 can evaporated milk
1/2 cup coconut milk
Mix thoroughly
Poke holes in the top of cooled cake with a fork or toothpick. Pour milk mixture over cake until it has reached your desired level of moistness (some people like just a bit of gooeyness, some people like the cake drowning in milk- your call)
1-1/2 c. heavy whipping cream- whipped
3 tbsp. sugar
1/3 to 1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
Gently fold sugar, vanilla, and sour cream into whipped cream.
Spread over cake.
Garnish with sliced strawberries, peaches, mango, or raspberries
Serve cold and store leftovers in freezer
*I came up with this tres-leches recipe as a twist on the traditional tres-leches that is served at EVERY birthday party in my husband's family. Luis's cousin Hector told me it was the best tres leches he'd ever had. He wasn't kidding. The sour cream in the whipped topping gives it a little bit of zip and keeps the whole thing from getting overly sweet. The coconut milk plays warmly off of the buttery cake. I never have leftovers when I serve this cake at parties.
