AZERBAIJAN SNACK

ZEMA'S TORTE

INGREDIENTS:

4 eggs	4 cups flour
2 cups sugar	1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter	1 teaspoon vanilla
1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk	1/2 stick butter

TO PREPARE:

1.         Mix together eggs, sugar, and butter until blended.

2.         Add flour (a little at a time), soda, and vanilla, mixing well. Separate into two parts.

3.         Press each part into an ungreased cookie sheet and bake in oven at 350 degrees. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until torte is a light golden brown.

4.         After baking and cooling, remove from pan. Cut each part into a large circle so that you have two round layers. Reserve the leftovers.

5.         Mix condensed milk and butter until creamy.

6.         Put in between the two layers, on the sides, and on the top.

7.         Sprinkle extra leftovers as a crumbled topping.

8.         Let the torte sit for one day to soften up.

This dessert is very sweet and usually prepared for special events!
