layer of frosting inside and out. Every year on Christmas Eve, we would have all of my relatives over for a mass and party. The high-lite of this event was the "Torte" my mom would make. I remember her spend all day in the kitchen baking on Christmas Eve. We only got this cake once a year because it was a lot of work, but well worth the work and the wait.
