Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water, eggs, and oil. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 29 to 34 minutes. Allow the cake to cool for at least 30 minutes. (64 minutes)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, 1/3 cup coffee-flavored liqueur, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, espresso powder, and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Using the large end of a chopstick, a wooden spoon handle, or a similar tool, poke holes into the cooled cake. Pour the coffee drizzle evenly over the entire cake, ensuring it seeps into the poke holes. Smooth the surface with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. (125 minutes)

06

Step

In a mixing bowl, beat together the egg yolks and white sugar with an electric mixer until the mixture becomes very light yellow and stiff. Add the cream cheese, 3 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; beat well until smooth and creamy. (7 minutes)

07

Step

In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Spread the cream cheese topping evenly over the cooled cake, smoothing the surface. Dust with 1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder, or to taste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. (132 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, use a high-quality coffee-flavored liqueur.
Make sure the cake is completely cooled before poking holes and adding the drizzle to prevent it from becoming soggy.
The cake can be made up to two days in advance. Store it covered in the refrigerator.

    I found the cake a little too sweet. Maybe reduce the sugar in the frosting?
