OLD FASHIONED STACK CAKE
Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and baking powder. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the eggs, vanilla extract and butter. Using the fingers, mix well, until a firm dough has formed.
- Wrap dough in a clean tea towel and chill in the refrigerator 8 to 12 hours, or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Turn a 9 inch round baking dish upside down, and lightly grease the surface.
- Pinch off a portion of the dough and roll out into a 9 inch circle approximately 1/3 inch thick. Continue this process with all the dough, making 5 to 7 layers.
- Bake each layer individually in the preheated oven 8 minutes, or until lightly brown.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, place the dried fruit in enough water to cover. Cook until soft and spreadable, but not runny, about 20 minutes.
- Drain the fruit well. Mix in the nutmeg, cinnamon and salt to taste.
- Stack the layers, spreading equal portions of the fruit mixture between each layer and on top of the final layer.
- Chill cake in the refrigerator 8 to 12 hours, or overnight.
