VINE TORTE OR PRUNE CAKE
This was made every year in my household at Christmas time. It is an Icelandic cake, but variations are made by a friends mom who is Ukrainian. Very Rich, and Very Good! (Cook time is actually how long it needs to sit)

Steps:
- Mix cookie ingredients as for cookies.
- Divide dough into 7 and roll out so it is approx size of 8" cake pan.
- Bake at 350 until slightly browned.
- Cool.
- Cover prunes with water and simmer until tender.
- Drain, reserving at least 1/2 cup of water.
- Put in food processor and add rest of ingredients.
- Process until smooth.
- Return to pot and simmer for a few minutes to allow flavors to blend.
- Cool until you can touch it without burning yourself.
- Layer filling between cookies, ending with a cookie.
- (seven cookie layers and six filling layers.) Wrap in wax or parchment paper and then in foil.
- Refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 2 weeks to cure.
- You know it has sat long enough when the cookie doesn't crumble when you cut it.
