Using the end of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the cake, about 1 inch apart.Slowly drizzle the condensed milk over the top of the cake, making sure it seeps into the holes.Allow the cake to cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours so it can absorb the milk.In a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

Optionally, sprinkle with ground cinnamon or add garnishes like nuts or caramel sauce.Slice, serve, and watch as friends and family dive into this delicious masterpiece. - Prep Time: 20 minutes
