    While the cake is baking or cooling slightly, prepare the cream topping. In a separate bowl, combine 1 sachet of cream chantilly mix, 1 cup of cold milk, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until the cream is thick and fluffy, forming stiff peaks.

    Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. While still warm, use a fork to poke several holes evenly across the top surface of the cake. Slowly pour 1 cup of cold milk over the entire cake, allowing it to soak in and make the cake extra moist.

    Once the milk has been absorbed, spread the prepared cream chantilly evenly over the top of the cake. Use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to create a smooth, appealing finish. For an extra touch, dust the top generously with cocoa powder using a fine-mesh sieve.
