Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.

In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add eggs one at a time. Stir in vanilla.

Gradually add dry ingredients alternately with buttermilk, starting and ending with dry.

Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.

Make the Tres Leches Mixture:

Mix evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk.

Poke holes in the cooled cake and slowly pour the milk mixture over it. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Prepare Raspberry Sauce:

In a small saucepan, cook raspberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until thickened. Cool.

Whip the Cream:

Beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Spread over the soaked cake.

Garnish and Serve:

Drizzle with raspberry sauce, top with fresh raspberries and chocolate shavings. Serve chilled.
