variation (if any)

  • Use a homemade chocolate cake batter instead of a box mix.
  • Swap toffee bits for chopped nuts for a nutty crunch.
  • Add a layer of caramel between cake layers for a taller cake.
  • Use dark chocolate chips for a less sweet taste.

FAQs

Q: Can I use low-fat milk instead of sweetened condensed milk?
A: No. Sweetened condensed milk adds big sweetness and body. Low-fat milk will not give the same creamy sink-in layer.

Q: Can I make this in two pans for a layer cake?
A: Yes. Bake in two pans and use half the sweetened milk on each layer. Press the milk in gently.

Q: How do I keep the toffee from getting soft?
A: Add toffee right before you chill the cake. Keep the cake cold until you serve.

Q: Can I skip the whipped cream?
A: Yes. You can spread a layer of frosting or leave it plain and just drizzle sauces.

Q: Can I make this dairy free?
A: You can try dairy-free whipped cream and a dairy-free sweetened condensed milk substitute, but the taste will change.

This cake gives you soft chocolate, sweet milk, and a nice crunch. It feels special but stays simple to make.
