· Preheating the oven to 350 degrees ensures that the oven is ready at the temperature you want to bake the cake.

· Mixing the ingredients in a bowl that is large will reduce the baking time since the ingredients will be spread in a large surface area that will ease battering as compared to a small bowl.

· Pouring of the cake mixture into a greased baking dish will ensure that the cake does not stick to the bottom.

· A sprinkling of the brown sugar, nuts and cinnamon mixture will provide a coating to the cake.

· Baking for 45 minutes ensures that the cake is fully cooked. After the elapse of the 45 minutes, a toothpick is inserted in the middle of the cake. Once removed the toothpick will be clean with no particles of uncooked batter. This reveals you that the cake is fully cooked and ready for serving.
