RASPBERRY CAKE TOPPED WITH FRUIT
A quick gourmet cake that is very moist. I made this for a friend's birthday as a nice alternative to standard birthday cake since she preferred whipped frosting to buttercream.

FRUIT-TOPPED CAKE
This recipe came from a story in Oprah's magazine. I have made it dozens of times, and love its simplicity. The recipe suggests using tart plums, ripe peaches, or Granny Smith apples. I have also had success using frozen mixed berries and fresh pears, as well as the suggested fruits. It is very adaptable! I bake this in a deep-dish glass pie plate.
