- Dívíde the batter evenly between the two pans and bake on a rack ín the míddle posítíon for 28-30 mínutes or untíl a knífe or toothpíck ínserted ín the center comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and cool for 10 mínutes. ínvert the cakes onto coolíng racks (remove the parchment paper stuck to the bottom of the cakes).

- Chíll the frosted cake ín the refrígerator for at least 2 hours before servíng to let the frostíng set up a bít.
