I can tell you that this is one delicious recipe that we adapted from Amanda's Cooking Blog. It's not a cake, and its not a tart, simply, it is a delicious dessert! Amanda found this recipe because she was looking to replicate an amazing dessert her friends mother makes during one of the Jewish holidays. This recipe caught her attention, because it was pretty close. The only thing was that this recipe contained dairy to make the filling more smoother.
