For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg to the dry ingredients. If you don't have cashews, other nuts like pecans or walnuts would also work well. To ensure the cake releases easily, you can line the bottom of the cake pan with parchment paper before greasing it. The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
