UKRAINIAN KYIVSKY TORTE
Most tortes are compact and flat as compared to the modern high and fluffy cakes. Eggs add lightness to them and, in place of flour, ground nuts or bread crumbs are used as a thickening. Most of the Ukrainian tortes are rich, and the richer the better, since no one is calorie-conscious in Ukraine. The Kyivsky torte consists of layers of sponge cake containing ground hazelnuts or walnuts separated by buttercream filling.

UKRAINIAN ROYAL TORTE
Steps:
- ALMOND BATTER: Add sugar to whipped egg whites, and mix well. Fold in almonds. Divide into 3 portions, and pour each into 25 cm. (10") round cake pan (spring-form with removable sides) lined with parchment paper. Bake in pre-heated 350F oven until golden, 20-25 minutes. Remove from pans and let cool. Invert to give smooth top for icing. BUTTER BATTER: Cream butter. Mix in egg yolks. Mix in remaining ingredients. Divide into 2 portions, and pat each down into 25 cm. (10") round spring-form cake pan lined with parchment paper. The layers are very thin, and take time to pat down. Bake in pre-heated 350F oven until light golden, 15 to 20 minutes. (They will not rise.) Remove from pans (if you wait, they will fall apart). Let cool. CHOCOLATE FILLING: Cream butter. Add egg yolks and mix well. Melt chocolate (microwave is easiest), let cool slightly (or else will melt butter) and add to butter/egg yolk mixture. Add vanilla. Mix well. JELLY FILLING: Use half a jar of jelly per layer, spreading it about 2 mm (1/16") thick. ICING: After torte is fully assembled, melt chocolate (microwave is easiest). (If desired, add cream or evaporated milk, stirring forcefully to avoid lumps, to make icing more spreadable; that also makes it darker and shinier for some reason.) Let cool only slightly before using. ASSEMBLY: There will be 5 layers of cake and 4 of filling. Use almond-based layer as bottom one, then alternate butter layers and almond ones, ending with an almond one on top. Chocolate filling covers each almond layer (except on top of torte), and jelly filling covers each butter layer. The sequence (bottom to top) is as follows: almond layer, chocolate filling, butter layer, jelly filling; almond layer, chocolate filling, butter layer, jelly filling; almond layer. Ice top and sides of torte with chocolate icing. Refrigerate. Wait at least 4-5 days for flavor to develop and layers to soften.

Great-Grandma used prunes and prune fillings in many goodies of her own creation. Prune torte is one of them. The filling is even more delicious when made with an equal quantity of dates and prunes.
