Notes
- You can use a variety of glazes or frostings with this recipe. Some of our favorites are a classic vanilla glaze, chocolate ganache, brown sugar frosting, chocolate buttercream, etc.
- You can store this cake on the counter or in the fridge for up to five days in an airtight container. After that the cake starts to dry out.
- If you are a real sweet tooth, you can use dark brown sugar instead. This has more molasses in it and will make this sweet cake even sweeter.
