CINNAMON TORTE
This is one of my favorite recipes. If you like cinnamon you will love this recipe. It's very elegant so it's great for a dinner party. It's a lot of work making the cookie layers, but you can do it days in advance. Assembling the Torte its self does not take long. You will a need to assembly the torte at least 4 hours ahead or overnight and refrigerate it.
