Steps:
- Heat the whole milk, sugar, baking soda, and pinch of salt in a heavy-based saucepan over high heat. Just before the mixture comes to the boil, reduce the heat to very low, ensuring that the mixture maintains a very gentle simmer (you may need to adjust the heat accordingly). Cook, stirring often, for about 1 hour, in which time the mixture will darken and thicken. From this point, stir the mixture frequently to avoid it catching and burning. Continue stirring for 20-30 minutes, until the mixture is thick and toffee-colored.
- To test if the dulce de leche is ready, place a spoonful on a cold saucer or plate. Allow it to cool and thicken, then run your finger through the centre of the dulce de leche. If the mixture doesn't pool back, it is ready. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool completely.
- Transfer the dulce de leche to a very clean and dry glass jar. It will keep in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
- Lightly grease a 8¾-in springform cake tin and line the base and side with baking paper.
- Place the cream cheese and dulce de leche in a bowl and use electric beaters to beat until well combined. Set aside.
- Whisk the cocoa powder and milk in a bowl, until the cocoa is dissolved. Dip one-third of the biscuits in the cocoa milk for just a few seconds, then transfer to the base of the prepared tin.
- Spread one-third of the dulce de leche mixture over the biscuits, then repeat with two more layers of dipped biscuits and dulce de leche. Set aside in the fridge.
- To make the ganache, place the cream in a saucepan over medium heat. When the cream is warm, but not boiling, remove from the heat and add the chocolate but do not mix or beat. Set aside for 10 minutes, then gently stir until smooth and glossy. Pour the ganache over the chocotorta and return to the fridge for at least 6 hours or overnight to set.
- Remove the chocotorta from the tin and gently remove the baking paper. To serve, warm a knife in hot water, then dry and cut the cake into thick slices.

Steps:
- Combine the dulce de leche and soft cheese with a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside.
- Pour the milk or coffee into a shallow bowl and dip in each chocolate biscuit for a few seconds until soaked but not falling apart. Arrange half the soaked biscuits in a 20 x 30cm baking tin or rectangular baking tray (ours was 3.5cm deep) in a single layer.
- Spread a thick layer of the dulce de leche mixture over the layer of biscuits, then repeat with the remaining biscuits and dulce de leche mixture until everything has been used up (you should finish with a layer of the dulce de leche mixture). Chill for at least 2 hrs until set, or ideally overnight. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and scatter with the chocolate chips. Cut into squares. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hrs.

- Submerge each chocolate cookie one by one in the coffee and line them across the parchment paper in the dessert baking dish. You may need to break up a couple of cookies to get the right geometrical shape to cover the entire surface.
