Can "ausschlafen" mean "to sleep in" (i.e. to sleep until later in the morning than you usually do)?
Word Reference and DeepL translator say so, but I don't see that meaning in Duden or DWDS.

Ausschlafen really means 'to sleep until you're not tired anymore' as defined by Duden and DWDS. Since this requires a certain amount of tiredness, ausschlafen implies sleeping longer than in the nights the tiredness arose from, but not necessarily getting up later than usual. For people of the 'lark' chronotype, e.g., it might mean going to bed early. Accordingly, ausgeschlafen means 'well-rested' and not 'having slept late'. Thus, to sleep in and ausschlafen are probably not entirely equivalent.
Most people, however, would arguably associate ausschlafen with getting up late, so ausschlafen can indeed (and often does) mean getting up later than usual.
