what to do if you are baking a cake and you're done, and then you realize you've added too much butter?

my little brother and i were making a red velvet cake, and we misread the butter amount, so we added 100 g more butter than necessary.....and we only realized it AFTER the batter was all made....

? HELP!

You could try increasing the other ingredients but you'd have to do some serious math to figure out how much of the other ingredients to add.

I would just bake it, if anything the cake will just be extra buttery and that can't be a bad thing.
