Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a chilled bowl, whip the whipping cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
