WOW! That ring trick is AMAZING! I had a VERY difficult time getting it to match my grandmas (she was a professional baker). It took YEARS for me to realize I had to make the layers thinner and let it sit a few days before serving. I finally make consistent thickness but they never were as perfect as my grandma. The ring is going into use for the 2022 holiday baking season! THANK YOU for sharing. Also, with my family recipe we cook the prunes in Port wine and use a stick blender to smooth out the jam. I'm going to try the crockpot method as well. I have to triple the recipe because I have to make 5 or 6 for family/friends/work. It's not christmas without vinetarta!
My mom used to make this! I have the recipe but haven't made it myself. I didn't see how mom made it. I gotta craving for it. It's sooo good!😋 At the end of watching this, my mouth was watering🤤🥰
Thank you so much for your help, the recipe I had produced dough that was too sticky to even think about rolling out, but after watching your video I added flour to mine and was able to rescue the dough and make the vinarterta . I also learnt some tricks for the next time I’m making it…I love the macramé ring idea.😊. Merry Christmas
@@EllenBennettHilltopStovetop Grandma (in-law) was Icelandic and made this, we call it Icelandic Wedding cake. I haven't made it, but would like to try. Thanks!
Awesome! I had never seen this process before. Silly me - did not realize each cookie layer was baked and individually. Lot of work, but a delicious Icelandic recipe!
Approximately 2 pounds. For a 9 inch round I use 3/4 cup per layer or a total of 4 1/2 cups of paste. Better to have extra that can be used a jam on toast rather then be short on your filling.
It is time consuming but can be broken down. Filling preparation. Cookie baking. Construction. And of course waiting a few days for the flavors to blend together. But overall, well worth it.
Enjoyed watching your segment. I have been making Vinarterta for a number of years but still got some good tips from watching you. Lovely job.
This cake is so good it’s like a Nordic version of cinnamon buns

So glad I am able to make your baking easier, just remember as well that you can have vinarterta any time of year.

It's worth the effort
My mom made it for years. Very rich but good
Always a Christmas treat.

Glad I could help.
We always divide the dough and pat it into buttered and floured cake pans but your way is pretty cool too.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing!!!
Hope you enjoy it

Could you share the amount of pitted prunes needed, Thanks

Seems like the kind off thing that should take a couple hours but would take me all day

Thanks.
But waiting a few days!? Is this some sort of torture?!
and you make vinaterta too
Oh yes
