One of the guys that hubby works with, has chickens on his farm and sent me fresh eggs to try with the message that I must send him some cake. Well the easiest I could think of was Madeira Cake. While looking in my recipes for the recipe though, I came across Viloshni Naraidu’s Coconut Cherry Loaf, which was much of a muchness. The inclusion of Almond essence and cherries is so awesome and had me eating cake way past midnight last night. Simple but sooo divine with a Hug in a Mug
Ingredients

250ml castor sugar
5ml almond essence
3 eggs
125ml desiccated coconut
