Tips for the best results
- Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
- Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
- Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
Variations & substitutions
- Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
- Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
- A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
