Yum! Plum Cake

Agnieszka made this yummy plum cake. By inserting plum halves into the surface of the batter, she was able to achieve a beautiful lattice effect. It makes for a stunning presentation of a most delicious cake.



Ingredients:

1 packet margarine (or butter)
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
3 eggs
3 tablespoons thick cream
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 kg plums

Preparation:

Cream together margarine and sugar until fluffy. Gradually add egg yolks, cream, baking soda, and sieved flour. Beat egg whites to a froth and add to the mixture. Turn the batter into a greased pan. Cut plums into halves, press them into the batter. Bake in a pre-heated 160C oven until it tests done (about 45 minutes should be enough, it depends on your oven).
