Icelandic Vinarterta
1/2 pound butter
1 1/4 cup white sugar
3 eggs
1/4 cup milk (more if needed)
1 tsp ground cardamon seed
4 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
Cream butter well. Add sugar gradually, then eggs. Beat until
creamy. Add milk, then dry ingredients. Divide into 5 or 6 equal
parts. Roll out on floured surface. Use a large plate turned
upside down for a guide, and cut with a sharp knife around plate.
Grease pan lightly, and bake at 375 until light brown, about 10
minutes. Remove from pan while hot. Put prune filling between
layers. Ice with butter icing to which you've added 3/4 tsp almond
flavoring. Ice top of cake only.
PRUNE FILLING
1 pound prunes
1/2 cup white sugar
pinch cloves
Put prunes in pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and
then turn heat off. When cool, put prunes through food chopper.
Add the sugar and cloves. Stir well.
Vinarterta usually improves with age. The pastry must be allowed
to soften from the moisture in the filling. Wrap in tinfoil and
refrigerate or freeze.
