Microwave cherry cake
Description
Goes perfectly with tea and coffee. You can make this cake without cocoa as well. Keep in mind that it will be pale in color, because a microwave oven does not provide dry heat and the cake will not brown. Instead of cherries, you can use other berries—lingonberries or blueberries. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
