Quick Plum Cake

Plum cake and Christmas go hand in hand. Love plum cake but I prefer non-alcoholic version while soaking nuts and dried fruits. Here is a quick microwave version which takes 8 minutes to cook.
Kids love this quick and easy cake. I made it on Christmas morning and the cake was gone in 5 minutes.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Soaking Time: 3 hours at least
Cook Time: 8 minutes
Serves : 4-5

Ingredients:

To soak:
Dried fruits : 1/2 cup (Raisins, dates, cherry, )
Nuts : 3 tablespoons (Pistachios, almonds, cashews, walnuts)
Orange juice : 1/2 cup

Others:
All purpose flour: 1 1/4 cup
Cocoa powder: 3 tablespoons
Baking Soda : 1/2 teaspoon
Sugar : 1/2 cup
Vegetable oil: 1/4 cup
Honey : 5 tablespoons
Warm milk: 1/2 cup

Method:

Take ingredients listed under to soak and mix together.  Soak them for 3-4 hours or they can be soaked for 1 day.
Mix All purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking Soda and sugar in a large bowl.
Add soaked fruits and nuts along with the juice, honey, oil and milk.
Mix well with a spatula.
Pour the batter in a 10" greased cake dish and cook it in a microwave for 8 minutes.
Let it cool off and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Take it out, cut into slices and serve.
