For best results, use high-quality butter. The flavor of the butter really shines through in this cake.
Do not overmix the batter, as this will result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
If you don't have butternut extract, you can substitute almond extract or leave it out altogether.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
