4. Prepare the Milk Syrup:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk until well combined.
5. Soak the Cake:
Once the cake has cooled for 10 minutes, use a fork or skewer to poke holes all over the top of the cake.
Slowly pour the milk syrup over the cake, allowing the liquid to soak in. You want the cake to absorb as much of the syrup as possible, making it wonderfully moist.
6. Prepare the Whipped Cream Topping:
In a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form (about 3-4 minutes). Stir in the vanilla extract.
7. Top and Serve:
Spread the whipped cream evenly over the soaked cake. You can garnish with cinnamon, fresh fruit, or shaved chocolate if desired.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld together before serving.
