  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  10. Prepare the raspberry glaze by combining raspberries and powdered sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
  11. Assemble the cake by layering the cooled cakes with raspberry glaze.

Notes

For a tropical twist, add shredded coconut to the batter. For a vegan version, substitute flax eggs for the regular eggs.
