Life isn't all just one flavour. It would be terribly boring if it were. The people that make our lives what they are come in all shapes and sizes, not to mention flavours. Some people are themselves very sweet at times, a tad sharp at others and every meeting with them leaves you with a strong memory. This cake is very representative of someone just like that.
1/2 cup Flour
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup Sugar1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
Pinch of Salt
1/2 cup Milk
1/4 cup Oil
1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence
1 Egg, beaten
1/2 cup Cherries, deseeded and halved
Preheat the oven to 350F (180 C).
Sift the flour with the baking powder and salt.
In a mixing bowl, add the egg, milk, sugar, oil, and vanilla essence. Beat well together. Add the flour mixture to this and blend well. Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin. Arrange the cherry halves on top of the batter. Bake for 30 minutes or until a knife/skewer, inserted into the centre of the cake, comes out clean.
Get ready to enjoy the sweet and tart flavours of this cake.
For all the sweet and sometimes tart times that we've shared in the years we've known each other, here's wishing you a very Happy Birthday, S.
