If you are also interested in this great recipe, then have a look! It's a super-fast cake-in-a-cup that's ready in no time. If you've thought about inviting your friends and relatives to coffee and cake, then you've come to the right place. This is the opportunity to organize a meeting with the people who are closest to your heart and at the same time surprise them with a delicious cake that will make everybody happy. In short, the perfect opportunity for coffee and cake!

The prep takes only 20 minutes. You'll have to be ready for a little bit of waiting, though. The baking time takes about 45 minutes, during which you can do other things as well. For example, you can prepare a nice table for your afternoon guests. The cake is in the oven and needs no more work and it succeeds one hundred percent because it is really easy to make. All right, here we go!

The ingredients list is meant for a cake with 6 portions and can be changed by recalculating the ingredients, i.e. increased if you need a cake with more portions or decreased if you are only interested in a little cake for two or want to create a romantic candlelight dessert.

-1/2 cup of whole milk yoghurt
- 1 can or bottled glass of cherries (about 3 1/2 cups)
- 1/2 cup of butter
- 1 cup of sugar (Always use the same cup for measuring. Wash thouroughly inbetween the different ingredients to make your wonderful super cake.)
- 3 eggs
- 2 1/2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of hazelnuts (ground)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- a little bit of powdered sugar

If the cake is also intended for people who may suffer from allergies, the same amount of ingredients can easily be replaced by others. As an example, think of people who are lactose intolerant. The yoghurt simply has to be bought lactose-free and the butter can be easily replaced by lactose-free butter or a margarine made from plant extracts. The cake still works!

Place the yoghurt in a bowl or dish. As already briefly mentioned above, the cup should now be thoroughly washed out because it must be used for further preparation. This is particularly convenient because no kitchen scales are required. So please wash out the cup and use it as a measuring cup for the preparation and completion of this wonderful, quick and easy cake. Don't forget to drain the cherries well afterwards, so that as little liquid as possible remains.

As a second step, mix butter and sugar together until a homogeneous creamy mass is formed. The eggs can then also be stirred in. Then mix the flour with the nuts and the baking powder mentioned in the ingredients list and gradually stir carefully into the yoghurt.

Now the finished dough should be filled into a greased springform pan. Cover it with the cherries!

The finished dough must now be baked together with the cherries at 350° for approx. 45 minutes.

This type of recipe is a very special and simple one. It can't get any faster than that. Also the wonderful possibility to replace the ingredients with other ingredients and still get a good cake is quite interesting. Just try it out!

You can start with the standard recipe and then try out other versions. Other fruits are also possible, the nuts can be replaced with almonds, a dash of lemon juice fits well into the dough, etc. Try it, study it and give the recipe to your friends so you can exchange new variations!
