Tia Vilica's Cake

Prepare the dough

In a bowl, combine the flour and mix in the other ingredients

Mix and knead with your hands until everything is well combined and smooth

Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch (not too thick). Reserve

Prepare the filling

In a saucepan or large skillet, combine all the ingredients

Simmer over low heat for about 2 hours, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, so it doesn't burn

It's done when you stir and the bottom of the pan appears

Remove from heat and let cool

Cover with the other half

Trim and even the edges

Bake in a moderate oven for about 20 minutes, until golden brown
