For an enhanced flavor, consider using a high-quality Irish butter. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal blending. To prevent sticking, use baking spray with flour instead of greasing and flouring the pan. If the top of the cake starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. Store the cooled cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
