For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter. Ensure your mashed potatoes are smooth and free of lumps for the best texture. If you don't have shortening, unsalted butter can be used as a substitute, though it may slightly alter the cake's texture. Feel free to experiment with different nuts or dried fruits to personalize the recipe to your taste.
