DATE TORTE
Dates are relatively heavy and the mixture is very light, so you'll need to be sure to cut the dates into very small pieces or you will find that they sink to the bottom of the cake. From the Western chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.
