baking tray. • Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl. Put aside.

• In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolk with 3/4 cup puree until a light and creamy consistency.

• Mix milk and vanilla until well combined.

• Slowly add the dry ingredients to the egg yolk mixture until combined.

• In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup

powdered sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

• Slowly add the whipped egg whites to the cake batter until everything is well mixed.

• Pour the batter into the prepared bowl and distribute evenly.

• Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes

out.

hole in the hot cake with a fork or knife.

until stiff peaks form.

• Cut Strawberry Tres Leche Cake and let cool with nice, creamy buttercream.
