***Tips:
-Before placing baking pan with mixture into oven make sure there are no bubbles by hitting the pan lightly on table to pop them because it'll make cake look better and who wants extra air?
-Cake is done when it springs back to the touch or when toothpick/fork is clean after placed in center.
