           - raspberries
      3 tb Nuts; pecans/walnuts, cashew
           - almonds, pistachios

  First soak all dried fruits in 1/2 cup cranberry juice.

  Cover and keep aside for few minutes till we assemble
  all the ingredients to make cake.

  Take water in a microwave safe bowl and micro high for a
  minute till the water is hot.

  Mix hot water in previously soaked dried fruits and nuts
  and let it steep for few minutes.

  For mixing wet ingredients into soaked fruits, add honey
  and brown sugar to this.

  Next mix in oil. Stir well and keep aside.

  In the meantime, for mixing dry ingredients take all
  purpose flour/maida, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking
  powder, cinnamon powder in a bowl and mix well.

  Sieve/sift it twice.

  Now mix wet and dry ingredients together nicely with
  spatula and mix both well.

  Add curd (yoghurt) and mix it well again.

  Take a microwave safe bowl/tin, brush all side with oil.

  Place butter paper covering the bowl/tin for making
  cake.

  Pour the batter in till the half way.

  If required use 2 small bowls/tins. As the cake would
  need space to rise.

  Preheat the microwave for a minute.

  Place the bowl/tin inside the microwave and set the
  timer for 5 mins.

  Micro high the cake for 5 minutes and when it is done,
  leave it inside the hot microwave with a standing time
  of 5 mins.

  Remove it from oven, and check with a toothpick
  inserted.

  If it comes out clean it's ready.

  Allow it to cool completely. Invert it on a plate, slice
  it and enjoy.

  Notes: Don't fill the microwave safe bowl to the brim. As
  the cake rises, just fill it half way. Or divide the
  batter in two bowls and micro it.

  After you take the cake out of the microwave, allow the
  cake to cool completely before slicing it.
