Let's make Dubai chocolate tres leches.
Okay, before we get started, I just want to preface this video by saying that no water will be used in today's recipe because y'all definitely let me know that we don't use water when making a tres leches. So noted.
But anyway, you guys, let's get started. Our first step is going to be preheating our oven to 350 degrees.
After that, we're gonna grab a bowl and some cake mix.
And today I'm gonna be using the Pillsbury one, which I've actually never tried this before, so we'll see if it's good.
Anyway, now that we have that, we're gonna pour it into our bowl.
Okay, and I forgot to press record, but our next step is going to be adding one cup of milk.
So, let's pour that in there.
And then lastly, two tablespoons of butter, okay? Not oil, because y'all also let me know.
So, let's pour that.
And then lastly, three eggs.
Now that all of everything is in there, we just need to mix it all together.
Now that our batter is all done, we need to grab a pan and grease it.
After that, we can go ahead and pour in our batter.
Now that our batter is in our pan, we can go ahead and put it into the oven again at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
Once our cake is finished baking in the oven, we're now going to set it aside and allow it to completely cool.
While the cake is cooling, in the meantime, we're going to start making our three milk mixture.
And to do this, we're going to start by using 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk.
12 ounces of evaporated milk.
And then lastly, two tablespoons of pistachio cream.
When I say a lot, I mean like a lot.
Anyway, now we need to mix our pistachio paste with the toasted kadaifi.
Once our kadaifi is in there, we need to continuously mix it so that way none of the kadaifi burns.
Once our kadaifi has turned a light brown color, go ahead and take it off of the heat.
Then transfer it into a bowl.
Now that our kadaifi is in there, we need to scoop a whole bunch of pistachio paste in there.
I say a lot, I mean like a lot.
Anyway, now we need to mix in our pistachio paste with the toasted kadaifi.
Once our mixture has become somewhat of a paste consistency, we can go ahead and take our cake out of the fridge.
Now that our cake is out of the fridge, we can start scooping our pistachio mixture onto the top.
Okay, you guys, our tres leches looks something like this.
We are going to now, as a little final touch, drizzle some melted chocolate over the top.
Okay, you guys, voila! We are done.
Ignoring the fact that I spilled the milk all over the counter for a second time.
I'm honestly really happy with how this turned out.
Like, this looks so delicious and I cannot wait to try it.
