Ingredients

Cake:

1/2 cup hot coffee
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large eggs
2/3 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt

Milk Mixture:

1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 can evaporated milk
1 cup chocolate milk
Whipped Cream Topping:
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
1/2 cup Nutella

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch pan with butter and set aside. In a measuring cup, whisk the hot coffee and butter until the butter melts, then set it aside until ready to use.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, soda, and salt. Then add eggs, buttermilk, coffee/butter mixture, and vanilla essence. Stir until you have a smooth batter. Pour the batter into the greased pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is just set in the middle. Let cool completely.
3
Once cool, poke the top of the cake with a fork – lots of holes for the delicious chocolate milk mixture to seep into.
4
Milk Mixture: Whisk together the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and chocolate milk. Pour it over the cake evenly and let it soak in.
5
For the whipped cream, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla essence, and Nutella together until soft peaks form.
6
Spread the whipped cream mixture over the top of the cake. Refrigerate the cake for 30 to 60 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
