Tips:

  • Use a dark baking pan to help the cake bake evenly and to give it a golden brown crust.
  • Line the pan with parchment paper to make it easy to remove the cake from the pan.
  • Measure your flour correctly. The best way to do this is to spoon it into a measuring cup and then level it off with a knife.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to spread the frosting on the cake.
