## **How to Make It**

### 1. **Bake the Sponge Cake**

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rectangular or square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until pale and fluffy (about 5–7 minutes). Gently fold in the flour, salt, and vanilla extract until combined.
Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until lightly golden and springy to the touch. Let it cool completely.

### 2. **Prepare the Coffee Soak**

Mix the brewed coffee, sugar, and coffee liqueur (if using) until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.

### 3. **Make the Creamy Filling**

Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, beat the mascarpone or cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheese mixture until light and fluffy.

### 4. **Assemble the Cake**

Cut the sponge cake into two or three even layers. Place the first layer on a serving plate and brush generously with the coffee soak. Spread a layer of cream over the cake. Repeat with remaining layers.

### 5. **Chill & Serve**

Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours (or overnight) to let the flavors develop and the cream set. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and top with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of coffee grounds for a beautiful finish.
