Ingredients

• 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for the milk mixture)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix well.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing well after each addition.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
6. Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. While the cake is baking, prepare the milk mixture. In a mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
8. Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
9. Poke holes all over the cake using a fork or skewer. Make sure the holes go all the way to the bottom.
10. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, making sure to evenly distribute it. Allow the cake to absorb the milk mixture for about 30 minutes.
11. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow it to fully soak up the milk mixture.
12. When ready to serve, you can top the cake with whipped cream, fresh berries, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
