Super soft and delicious yoghurt plum cake baked with coconuts is the perfect holiday cake for you. This is a simple cake that you only need one bowl to mix everything up and bake in 20 minutes. In a big mixing bowl, add in 2 eggs and beat the eggs with an electric whisk until about double in size and fluffy. You can also use a hand whisk but this will take you quite some time, just make sure you whisk the eggs really well.
