- Place one cooled cake layer (or loaf) on a serving platter. If using round pans, you can frost between layers for an extra-decadent result.
- Drizzle or spread the slightly warm frosting over the top of the cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides. Use a spatula to smooth evenly for a glossy finish.
- Let the cake rest at room temperature until the frosting sets completely before slicing.
Serving & Storage
- Serve the cake slightly warm for a gooey, melt-in-your-mouth experience, or fully cooled for a firmer, fudgier texture.
- Store covered at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. For best flavor, bring chilled cake to room temperature before serving.
- You can also freeze unfrosted cake layers for up to 2 months. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and thaw before frosting.
