⅛ cup whole milk

7 oz sweetened condensed milk

Instructions.

1
Make cake by following directions on box. This recipe calls for a 9x13 inch sheet cake.

Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove cake from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature.

3
While the cake is cooling, combine the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, whole milk and Cardamom Rose Concentrate in a small bowl or large measuring cup.

Once the cake has completely cooled, use a fork to poke holes all over the top of the cake.

Slowly pour the cardamom rose milk mixture over top of cake, making sure to cover the top and pour along edges. Cover and refrigerate cake for at least 1 hour or overnight, to allow it to soak up milk.

Whip the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Set in the refrigerator until ready to use.
