Notes

This cake is best chilled in the fridge for a couple of hours before serving to let the flavors meld.
If you're missing an ingredient, consider using almond milk or coconut cream as substitutions.
Store the cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze individual slices for up to 3 months. Always label the container with the date for clarity!
