The cake known as "Better Than Sex Cake" has a curious and fascinating history in the world of home baking. This dessert, which originated in the United States, has become popular for its intense flavor and combination of ingredients that make it irresistible. In Latin America, although it is not called exactly the same, there are similar desserts that combine chocolate, condensed milk, and caramel to achieve a creamy and delicious texture. For example, in Mexico it is known as "chocolate cake with condensed milk and caramel," while in countries like Argentina and Colombia it is usually called simply "chocolate cake with dulce de leche." The peculiarity of this cake lies in the technique of poking holes into it once it is baked so that the liquids penetrate and moisten every bite, creating a sweet and sticky experience that has won over palates throughout the region.
