Prepare the Cake Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easier removal.

Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake has set but still has a slight jiggle in the center.
- 5
Cool the Cake
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
