Somehow, we don;t have that in Greece. I just searched for this in Greek, and it seems that you can find many recipes in the Greek internet, about the so called "traditrional Albanian trileche".
tres leches is the spanish variant. it probably came from a medieval existent type of soaked cake over to latin america. becoming tres leches and going back to the balkans via Mexican Telenovela or via an italian chef who introduced his version in Prishtina in the 90s
First you prepare the sponge cake You take eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, baking powder and flour, put them all in a large bowl, mix them slowly with a mixer. Then take a baking pan, coat it with olive oil a little and put baking paper in the pan, put the mixture in the pan and let it bake at 200 degrees for 25 minutes. After the sponge cake is baked, remove it from the pan and let it cool. While the sponge cake is cooling, make the topping.
Put milk, condensed milk and hopla in a bowl and mix it well. Take the well-chilled sponge cake out of the pan and put some of the topping in the pan, return the sponge cake to the pan and pour spoonfuls of it until you use up the topping. Let the liquid absorb well. Then cover it with trileche caramel and leave it in the fridge for 2-3 hours and the cake is ready to eat

I think its a below average dessert, but it's better than having no dessert.
trashdsi@reddit
I really don't like its texture. I think, in case of no dessert, our "fakir pastası" would even taste better and cost less
Osuruktanteyyare_@reddit
Really? You prefer çingen pastası over trileçe??
Mr_ND_Cooking@reddit (OP)
Maybe i dont know
Sudden_Shock8434@reddit

voislav@reddit
For a long time I was thinking that it was a Turkish recipe. And then I found out that the name is three milks in Spanish..
Outrageous_Trade_303@reddit
It originates from Latin America.
epirot@reddit
yes introduced by an italian chef in Kosovo. really cool thing to see how a dish has the same name in Costa Rica and the Balkans.
Mr_ND_Cooking@reddit (OP)
Yes yes and yes

I've never heard it called Trileche. It's known as Tres Leches. That being said, we don't have it in Bulgaria, but it's good.

Question for Bulgarians, is this popular in Bulgaria?
Stealthfighter21@reddit
It's non-existant.
