Serious question, does cheesecake really count as a cake?
Cause I'm very firmly on the side of pie in the cake vs pie debate. But cheesecake seems to throw me off, and I'm not really sure it's fair to count it among the dry, frosted bricks that constitute cake in proper

I just consider cheesecake to be its own category. There are cakes and then there are cheesecakes. I don't like to compare quality between categories either so I would never say a cheesecake is better than a white cake or whatever. They are just different foods completely.

Tres leches is one of my favorites but tiramisu beats it since it has some coffee/cocoa to add a little bitterness to contrast the sweetness.

I suppose you could add a little coffee or chocolate to a tres leches though and that would be pretty good too.

The cake itself should be denser than average so it won't fall apart when it soaks up the milk. It's like halfway between cake and pudding so you might like it even if you don't like regular sponge cake.
