- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
- After it’s cooled a bit, slide a knife around the edges.
- Place a plate on the top of the pan and turn it upside down. Give it a tap for the cake to release from the pan to be upside down on the plate.
- Then, place a plate or cake stand on the bottom-side of the cake and turn it right-side up.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar and cut into eight slices.
