Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 5 large eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
• 1/4 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
• 1/4 cup coffee liqueur (optional)
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• Chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
4. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. While the cake is baking, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, brewed espresso, and coffee liqueur in a bowl. Mix well.
6. Once the cake is done, pierce it all over with a fork and slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake. Allow the cake to absorb the liquid while it cools to room temperature.
7. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake.
8. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
9. Before serving, dust the top of the cake with cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate shavings.
