Notes

Feel free to substitute sour cream with plain Greek yogurt and vegetable oil with melted coconut oil for a unique twist. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate to prevent stickiness. For longer storage, wrap slices in plastic wrap and freeze them for up to a month; reheat briefly in the microwave for a fresh taste.
