Notes

For a dairy-free option, use margarine or coconut oil instead of butter, and substitute the whole milk with almond or oat milk.
You can add a touch of lemon or orange zest for an extra flavor boost.
Store leftovers tightly wrapped at room temperature for 2-3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
To keep the cake moist, consider brushing it with simple syrup before frosting.
