For our gathering of the four good guys last Sunday night, the dessert selection was that wonderful treat of tres leches cake. I've got a few recipes that I bounce around for this particular goodie, and the one chosen for last weekend could be tackled with confidence because it comes from those smart folks at America's Test Kitchen and Cook's Country. Once more, it came through in glorious goodness, richly milked and fully sweet, a really nice whipped cream topping enhanced with vanilla powder, and not so heavy following our full servings of baked spaghetti earlier in the evening. I should have plotted for myself a much longer downtown stroll before bedtime, though.
