ZWETSCHGENKUCHEN - PLUM CAKE
This is a classic German pastry and a delicious way to use all the plums that ripen in late summer. Actually a cross between a tart and a cake, the baked red plums give the treat a rosy appearance. Not an overly sweet dessert, it should be served with lots of fresh whipped cream.
