• Oil your pans well.
• Pour the batter in your pans- be sure to leave some room at the top as these cakes should rise.
• Sprinkle the top with your topping.
• Alteration: Instead of sprinkling the topping over the cake, you might prefer to pour half your batter in the pan, create an inside layer by sprinkling in some of your topping and then pour the remaining batter in your pan and sprinkle the rest of the nut mixture over the top.
• You can always whip up some more topping if you need to!
• To Bake: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

• Turn the cake over and slide onto a plate (if you have used a bundt cake pan).
