Cranberry Mini Cake

I have a tub of plain yoghurt sitting in the fridge. I tried using some to make chicken pie for my dad and still some leftover so I used it up to make this cranberry cake. Thanks to Gina of KitchenCapers as I got this recipe from her and I have only made it once before. This will be the second time making it again. Jonathan ate quite a few but he dug up all the cranberry and gave it to his dad. Jon is like that, he will dig up all the fruits in the konnayku jelly and only eat the jelly. Strange boy.
