Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve as is, or top with your favorite light frosting or whipped topping. Slice into 12 servings and enjoy!
