Suzanne—as far as I am concerned, anything on the planet can, and should, be replaced with butter. So you go right ahead.

For the cardamom, you can just leave it out entirely—no harm done. But if you wanted to use a little dash of mace or cloves, that would work well, too.

Is there a substitute for cardamom? Also, could I replace the vegetable oil with butter?

If I were to make this into a cake, I would probably spread it between three 8 inch layers or 2 nine inch layers. With the three layers, check to see if it’s done around 15 minutes. With the 9 inch cakes, it will probably be done in 20.

I was wondering if I could make this into a layer cake. What size cake pans would I use and how many cake pans. Also, how long is the cooking time.

I made this for our ward Halloween party. I made it into a sheet cake and turned it into a potions book. It was so cute and everyone loved it. The flavor is fantastic! I will be making this a part of my recipe collection.
Thanks!
