Place in oven at 300 degrees F then check for doneness in 20 minutes. Stick toothpick through center to see if it comes out clean. If not clean start checking every 5 minutes afterward.
If toothpick comes out clean and the cake still doesn't look quite done, pull out anyway. The cake will finish cooking during resting.
Allow to cool then serve, topped with butter
