  4. 4
    Preheat the oven to 350°F / 175°C.

    Grease a 9-inch round pan or a 9×13-inch pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper if possible.

  15. 15
    Check that the center springs back lightly and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.

    If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil for the last 10 minutes.
  17. 17
    Allow the cake to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
