Chocolate Tres Leches Cake










Cake
1 Box Betty Crocker's Chocolate Cake Mix
1 Small 4.9oz Box chocolate Pudding Mix
4 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 1/4 Water

Topping
1 14oz can Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 12oz can Evaporated Milk
1 cup Half and Half
1/4 cup cocoa

2 cups Heavy Whipping cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Chocolate Syrup
Sliced Strawberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat all the cake ingredients together. Continue to beat for 2 minutes. Pour batter into a baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Poke holes in the top of the cake with the back a wooden (or plastic) mixing spoon.

Whisk together the Sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, half and half, and cocoa. Pour over cake. Let cool for half an hour, before covering it with plastic wrap and chilling it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to over night.

Before serving, beat together whipping cream and powdered sugar. Spread over the top of the chilled cake. Top each piece of cake with chocolate syrup and a few sliced strawberries. Refrigerate leftovers, if there ARE any!
