Good Evening,

TRES LECHES, simply denotes 3 MILKS. Thus this dessert, very common throughout Puerto Rico, Cuba and the Dominican Republic, as well as Mexico and Argentina, is a delicious blending of three different types of milk, usually prepared for a salsa over pound or sponge cake. 

Here is my dear Cuban Galician Miami Beach relocated friend Maria Vilarchao´s recipe;
