The best way to cook cakes is low, slowly and for a long time, covering with foil towards the end of cooking time also helps the cake to steam through. If it ever happens again that it is not cooked through when you take it out. Cover it with foil and some towels. It's the best way to rest a moist cake or a cake that takes a long time. I do this with fruitcakes too and they come out beautiful.
Most bakers cook their cakes at 160C. Not the usual 180C. And the average cooking time is an hour.
