Super Moist Fig Cake

Well, if you are fruit lover and enjoy moist supple sweetness of fruits in desserts, then this is for you. I personally loves fig and dates in baking recipes, although figs are not as sweet as dates, but there crunch delight takes over very well in so many ways its been cooked. This recipe turned out to be so good and very moist and soft that it just melts aways in your mouth leaving behind just traces of a beautiful dessert :)
