For a richer flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar. A teaspoon of lemon zest adds a bright note to the cake. If you don't have all the spices on hand, you can substitute 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice. The cake is delicious on its own, but it's also great with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.
