I've been wanting this recipe for a very long time because the first time I ate this cake I was blown away, literally, it's amazing! So soft, fruity and healthy for you too, well maybe not so healthy but despite all that cheese, butter and sugar, it has a lot of fruit packed in there too. I'm probably kidding myself and you but it's definitely worth baking and putting the extra effort in for this one. So if you have about an hour to spare....you know what to do. Bake yourself happy!
