Thanks again for the help. The Jewish Almond cake does have some similar ingredients, but this is placed and baked between the two sections of dough. Im going to try to post the complete recipe.

Food / Polish Cake inside crust with almonds? [10]

We had found an old recipe, but havent had much success. It is a dough / crust of flour, butter egg yolk and water

then a filling of 4 oz. almonds crushed, 4 yolks, 5 egg whites, 2 tbls bread crumbs and 8 oz sugar

says to beat egg whites until stiff and mix the almonds and bread crumbs in, then cut crust in half.
Place filling into one half and cover with the other half and bake. I remember it being in a round style cake pan.

Thank you for the help.

Food / Polish Cake inside crust with almonds? [10]

I have been searching for years for the name, or recipe for a cake my grandmother used to receive here in the USA from a friend in Poland. The exterior was a type of pie crust and inside was an almond based cake like filling. Any ideas??
