Coconut, Chocolate and Cherry Cake
I recommend preparing this incredibly delicious dessert. It turns out aromatic, airy and juicy. The cooking process is as simple as possible, and the result will definitely impress you. Cherries can be replaced with any other berries (for example, sweet cherries in season). Frozen berries should be defrosted beforehand and excess liquid drained.
