The original recipe suggests that this cake tastes better the next day. They were NOT joking. We actually liked the cake warm from the oven. But the refrigerated left overs that we had the next day had us wanting more. It was immensely delicious. Next time I plan to make this late in the evening and enjoy it only the next day.Notes1.Eggs : You can replace the eggs using my Egg Substitution Chart. You would need to substitute for 2 Whole Eggs.2.Sour Cream : Instead of sour cream you can use fat free Greek Yogurt.3.Berries: You can use any type of berry you like. You can just use one berry also (use 1-1/2 cups of it). Frozen or thawed berries may be substituted.4.Sucanat: If you cannot find it, use regular Brown sugar instead or use white sugar.
