Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 11x17 inch jelly roll pan. Mix together the walnuts, ground cinnamon, and 3/4 cup of sugar in a medium bowl and set aside.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. In a large bowl, stir together the yeast mixture, egg yolks, sour cream, and butter. Gradually stir in the flour until the dough becomes too stiff to use a spoon. Use your hand to knead the dough in the bowl until it becomes smooth, about 5 minutes. Divide the dough into three equal parts, form into balls, cover, and set aside to rest for about 15 minutes.
- Roll one of the balls of dough between 2 sheets of waxed paper to fit the pan. Place the dough in the bottom of the prepared baking pan and spread with 3/4 of the nut mixture. Roll out another ball of dough in the same way, place this over the nut layer in the pan and spread the apricot preserves evenly over the dough. Roll the third ball in the same way and place on top of the layer of preserves.
- Place the torte in the preheated oven and set the timer for 40 minutes. When the timer goes off, the top of the torte should be golden brown, if not then wait a few minutes. Place the egg whites into a clean glass or metal bowl. Whip the egg whites to soft peaks, then gradually add 2/3 cup sugar while beating the egg whites to stiff peaks. Spread the meringue evenly over the top of the torte and sprinkle with the remaining nut mixture.
- Bake the meringue-covered torte for an additional 15 minutes. Cool the torte in the pan set on a wire rack. Trim the edges for a cleaner presentation. Serve at room temperature.

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.
UKRAINIAN PRUNE TORTE
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.

TOP 20 UKRAINIAN CAKES FOR SWEET TEETH - CHEF'S PENCIL
From chefspencil.com
- The Kyiv Cake. The most iconic Ukrainian cake ever comes from the capital city – Kyiv. This legendary nut-and-meringue dessert was invented almost 100 years ago and is now associated with the former president Poroshenko, the owner of the famous Roshen confectionary factory.
- The Monastic Hut. You should expect cherries to go with everything in Ukraine – they know how to serve them with main dishes and desserts alike. This absolutely gorgeous triangular cake really looks like a small monk hut (Monastyrska izba).
- The Drunken Cherry Cake. Made of chocolate ganache, sponge layers, and pitted cherries, this alcohol infused cake will get you wined and dined simultaneously.
- Ant Hill Cake. I could swear no other nation uses as much poppyseed as Ukrainians. They believe you cannot spoil any dish with poppy, and I agree. As unglamorous as the name murashnyk might sound to you, the cake just sparkles when it’s sliced.
- Poppyseed Roll. For a less fancy option, as an everyday tea companion, this makivnyk (with an alternative filling of walnuts and raisins) is the best.
- Poppyseed Cake with Cherry Jelly. This makovo-vyshnevyi cake has it all. Its two layers of poppyseed sponge squeeze sandwich the other two layers – hard milk sauce and cherry jelly.
- Spartak Cake. You could argue Spartak comes from ancient Sparta, but every Ukrainian will try to prove you wrong. The taste of childhood, this cake features eight cocoa layers soaked with sour cream to melt in your mouth like a cloud.
- Napoleon Cake. You might think this recipe comes from France, but every Ukrainian will swear by it as their national cake. Moist, sinfully delicious, layered with custard, Napoleon will steal your heart and stomach forever.
- Layered Honey Cake. Yet another multilayer cake, this medovyk is similar to spartak but has honey-soaked rather than cocoa biscuits. And well, Ukrainians have such a longing for cakes that require a lot of time to make that you’ll need to put by quite some time into baking this one as well.
- Wafer Cake. This option comes in handy when you want a cake but aren’t particularly in the mood to bake one. Making vafli won’t take you longer than 30 minutes and you only need three ingredients.
