Queen Elizabeth Date Cake Remix

Dense, moist date cake updated with swapped nuts and enriched flavors. Simmered dates for soft texture; batter balanced with half whole wheat flour and all-purpose mix. Leavening adjusted for loft without wild rise. Brown butter swapped for clarified butter, sharper nutty aroma. Glaçage remade with muscovado sugar for deeper molasses notes, coconut flakes replaced with toasted pecans. Sauce thickened slightly and almond extract added for complexity. Baking times tweaked; watch for golden edges and springy center. Frost hot cake for sticky finish, let cool fully before unmolding. Nut swap adds crunch variety; clarified butter avoids soggy spots. Sauce thick beat signals readiness. Real kitchen hacks included.
