Vinarterta Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cups sugar, fine granulated
- 2 pec eggs, large
- 2 tablespoons cream
- 4 cups flour, approximately
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 teaspoons cardamom seed, ground
For the Filling:
- 1 pound prunes
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup water that prunes were boiled in
Instructions
- Stone the prunes if they still have their stones. Boil them and put them through a food chopper. Mix with the sugar, cinnamon and water. Bring the prune mixture to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Boil for about 15 minutes. Keep warm for spreading on the cakes.
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
- Cream the butter. Add the sugar gradually then add eggs one at a time. Add dry ingredients, flavoring and cream. Add all the flour and knead (don't knead too much).
- Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Place each part on the bottom of a round tin. First you flatten the dough with your hands, to fit the tin. To get it nice and even put a wax paper over the layers and with a glass or rolling pin, lightly roll over it.
- Remove the wax paper and with a fork, make small holes in the layers. Bake them to a golden brown color at 375ºF degrees for about 10 minutes.
- Remove each layer from its tin and cool before putting together with the prune filling. When cooled place one cake layer on a flat plate, add a layer of prune filling and continue adding cake and filling layers, with the cake layer being the top.
- Cover with butter icing if desired.
