Notes

  • Room temperature butter for a smoother batter.
  • Be sure not to over-mix; this will lead to a denser cake.
  • Glaze the cake while still warm so it can absorb.
  • Keep leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
  • You can also season the butter with a dash of salt to bring out the rich, salty flavours.
